Maria Figueiredo-Pereira on Reactive glia show increased immunoproteasome activity in Alzheimer's disease.

COMMENT This very interesting paper uses state-of-the-art techniques to assess properties of unique brain cells in a mouse model of AD as well as in human samples. Cell lines are also included. However, it is premature to dispute “the widely held belief that prot

Henrietta Nielsen on ApoE influences amyloid-β (Aβ) clearance despite minimal apoE/Aβ association in physiological conditions.

COMMENT In this paper, Verghese et al. provide important data confirming earlier studies showing reduced cellular association between Aβ and astrocytes in the presence of ApoE. The current data obtained from studies on rodent astrocytes suggest competing effects
