Research Question

"Despite the debate focusing on SEA-AD transcriptomic data, no actual gene expression patterns or pathway analyses from this dataset were presented. The fundamental question of which molecular signatures define vulnerability remains unanswered.

Ranked Hypotheses (1)

Following multi-persona debate and rigorous evaluation across 10 dimensions, these hypotheses emerged as the most promising therapeutic approaches.

CLU/APOE Duality in Amyloid Clearance Determines Cell-Type-Specific Vulnerability Thresholds

Clusterin (CLU) and APOE exhibit opposing functions in amyloid homeostasis—CLU primarily inhibits fibril formation while APOE shows context-dependent effects. Differential expression patterns in APOE4 carriers exhibit heightened complement activation and microglial dysfunction through a lipidation-dependent vulnerability axis.
