Is myelin loss in AD causal or an adaptive response to neuronal damage?

PARTIALLY ADDRESSED

The debate raised conflicting views on whether myelin restoration would be beneficial or harmful in AD. The skeptic suggested myelin loss could be adaptive to reduce metabolic burden, but this fundamental question remains unresolved and is critical for oligodendrocyte-targeted therapies.
