Studies Reveals Microglia's Role in Alzheimer's Progression, and the Potential of Shp2
Alzheimer's disease, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by memory loss, cognitive decline, and behavioral changes, has been a major public health concern for decades. While the exact cause remains elusive, a significant focus has been on the accumulation of beta-amyloid plaques in the brain.
