Stroke and Amyloid-beta Downregulate TREM-2 and Uch-L1 Expression that Synergistically Promote the Inflammatory Response

Ivan Enrico Repetto

Neuroinflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, and the transcription factor NF-kappa B is a player in this event. We found here that the ischemic damage alone or in association with A beta(1-42) activates the NF-kappa B pathway, ...
