In our new paper, we show that neuroinflammation in Alzheimer’s follows a two-wave pattern of harmful effects: 1️⃣ First wave: triggered by amyloid-β (Aβ) 2️⃣ Second wave: driven by widespread tau pathology 📄

INTRODUCTION Current literature presents conflicting results regarding the impact of neuroinflammation on Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related neurodegeneration. While some studies suggest that neuroin...
