**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
The NAD+/SIRT3 axis represents a critical regulatory hub controlling mitochondrial bioenergetics and cellular fate determination in neurodegeneration. SIRT3, the predominant mitochondrial sirtuin deacetylase, requires NAD+ as a cofactor to maintain its enzymatic activity and regulate key metabolic proteins including acetyl-CoA synthetase 2 (ACSS2), long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCAD), and components of respiratory complexes I, II, and V. Under physiolo
**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) serves as a critical checkpoint regulator in microglial activation states during neurodegeneration, operating through a sophisticated molecular cascade that determines whether microglia adopt protective or potentially detrimental phenotypes. TREM2, a transmembrane glycoprotein receptor expressed predominantly on microglia in the central nervous system, functions as a pattern recognition receptor t
