abstract：:Mutations in TREM2 increase risk for late-onset AD. In this issue of Neuron, Zhao et al. (2018) show that TREM2 binds Aβ to enhance its clearance and Lee et al. (2018) demonstrate that human TREM2 expression in AD mice ameliorates Aβ-associated deficits. ...

abstract：:After synaptic vesicles (SVs) undergo exocytosis, SV pools are replenished by recycling SVs at nerve terminals. At Drosophila neuromuscular synapses, there are two distinct SV pools (i.e., the exo/endo cycling pool (ECP), which primarily maintains synaptic transmission, and the reserve pool (RP), which participates in...
