Comparing 2 hypotheses side-by-side
**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale** TREM2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells 2) serves as a critical immunoreceptor on microglia that orchestrates the balance between neuroprotection and neurodegeneration through its sophisticated recognition and signaling mechanisms. The receptor exists in multiple conformational states that dictate its binding specificity and downstream signaling cascades. In healthy brain tissue, TREM2 recognizes phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure on apoptotic n
**Background and Rationale** Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) represents one of the most significant genetic risk factors for late-onset Alzheimer's disease, with rare loss-of-function variants conferring up to threefold increased risk of dementia. This single-pass transmembrane receptor, exclusively expressed on microglia within the brain, has emerged as a critical regulator of microglial phenotype and function throughout the lifespan. Under physiological conditions, TR
