Moreover, the modulation of neuroinflammation through CD22 has shown promise in alleviating Aβ-induced inflammatory responses in microglia, highlighting potential therapeutic avenues for AD (ref: Mai doi.org/10.1186/s12974-025-03361-2/). Interestingly, sex-specific influences of the APOEε4 genotype on neurogenesis have been observed, with male carriers exhibiting reduced neural progenitor cells and increased microglial presence compared to their wildtype counterparts, while female carriers showed enhanced neurogenesis (ref: Lee doi.org/10.1186/s13293-025-00694-8/). These findings underscore the importance of understanding microglial dynamics and their metabolic states in the context of AD, as they may reveal novel targets for intervention and therapeutic strategies.
