How Does Gene Expression in Different Brain Cell Types Relate to Proximity to Amyloid Plaques in Alzheimer’s Mouse Model?

Widespread deposition of extracellular amyloid- β (A β) plaques are the neuropathologic hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease. Studying different cells surrounding A β plaques can reveal molecular pathways driving their reactive states and provide insights into how histopathological hallmarks contribute to neurodegeneration. The aim of this project is to understand the cells interactions and whether specific genes are differently expressed near A β plaques.
