**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
TREM2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells 2) functions as a critical immunoreceptor that orchestrates microglial activation and phagocytic capacity in the central nervous system. The receptor consists of an extracellular immunoglobulin-like domain that recognizes damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), including phospholipids, lipoproteins, and amyloid-β oligomers. Upon ligand binding, TRE
