Abstract

Alzheimer's Diseases In article number 2304357, Hansang Cho and co-workers investigate neurotoxic microgliosis in Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study reveals that AD neuron-reactive astrocyte interaction induces production of key cytokine (IFNγ) and accumulation of oxidative stress (H2O2), which activate proinflammatory microglia. The proinflammatory microglia in tern exacerbate synaptic impairment, phosphorylated-tau accumulation, and neuronal loss at the end. The cover was illustrated by You Jung Kang.
