➡ Upstream Target Alzheimer's disease
Identification:MR + KO
✗ KILL CRITERIA
  • TREM2 loss-of-function variants show no AD risk modulation in replication cohort (OR=1.0, p>0.05)
  • Microglial TREM2 knockout in 5xFAD mice fails to alter amyloid plaque burden
  • TREM2 agonist fails to reduce tau pathology in P301S tauopathy model
