DISCONTINUE. Critical mechanistic contradiction: LRP1 activation → autophagy → tight junction degradation → paracellular antibody passage. Counter-evidence demonstrates that autophagy is required to MAINTAIN BBB integrity (ATG7 deletion disrupts BBB via tight junction protein accumulation). Using ApoE4 (associated with Alzheimer's pathology and BBB breakdown) as therapeutic ligand is counterintuitive. 4-step cascade with low efficiency; paracellular transport of 150 kDa antibodies requires subst
**Background and Rationale** TREM2 variants represent major genetic risk factors for Alzheimer's disease, with loss-of-function mutations increasing dementia risk threefold. While TREM2 is exclusively expressed on microglia, emerging evidence suggests its primary pathogenic role occurs through disrupted astrocyte-microglia communication rather than intrinsic microglial dysfunction. Healthy brain homeostasis depends on coordinated responses between these glial populations, where TREM2+ microglia
