TREM2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells 2) shows marked upregulation in disease-associated microglia (DAM) within the SEA-AD Brain Cell Atlas. Analysis of middle temporal gyrus single-nucleus RNA-seq data reveals TREM2 expression is enriched in a specific microglial subpopulation that undergoes dramatic transcriptional reprogramming in Alzheimer's disease. TREM2 expression levels correlate with Braak stage progression, establishing it as both a central mediator of the microglial di...
