Microglia constitute a barrier that prevents neurotoxic protofibrillar Aβ42 hotspots around plaques
In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques are tightly enveloped by microglia processes, but the significance of this phenomenon is unknown. Here we show that microglia constitute a barrier with profound impact on plaque composition and toxicity. Using high-resolution confocal and in vivo t...
