1 20640189 Tmem176b expression was highest in the inner zone of amyloid plaques, whereas TREM2 expression was highest in the outer zone.
2 20640189 Induced expression of TREM2 occurred co-incident with detection of thioflavine-S-positive amyloid deposits.
3 20640189 Transfection studies revealed that expression of TREM2 correlated negatively with motility, but correlated positively with the ability of microglia to stimulate CD4(+) T-cell proliferation, TNF (tumour necrosis factor) and CCL2 (chemokine ligand 2) production, but not IFNgamma (interferon gamma) production.
4 20640189 However, activating cells with LPS (lipopolysaccharide), but not IFNgamma, reduced the correlation between TREM2 expression and phagocytosis.
