阿尔茨海默病(Alzheimer’s disease,AD)是一种极具破坏力的神经退行性疾病,因其复杂病理和现有治疗的不足,探寻能直击疾病根源的新靶点迫在眉睫。近年来众多研究发现,小胶质细胞中的髓系细胞激发受体2(triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-2,TREM2)具有延缓AD病程的功能且其异常在AD的发生发展中扮演关键角色,并有望成为治疗AD的靶点。本综述以TREM2为切入点,概述TREM2的生物学特点,重点讨论其在AD三大病理特征中的重要作用及作为AD治疗靶点的潜力。旨在加深对TREM2在AD中作用的了解,以期为后续AD治疗探索新靶点提供理论参考。
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a highly destructive neurodegenerative disorder,and due to its complex pathology and insufficient treatment,it is urgent to explore new targets that can directly address the root cause of the disease. In recent years,numerous studies have shown that triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2(TREM2) in microglial cells has the function of delaying the progression of AD,and its abnormality plays a key role in the development and progression of AD,with a potential of being used as a target for the treatment of AD. This article reviews the biological characteristics of TREM2 and discusses its important role in the three major pathological features of AD and its potential as a target for AD treatment,in order to deepen the understanding of the role of TREM2 in AD and provide a theoretical reference for exploring new targets for AD treatment in the future.
