Abstract
The article discusses the decline in expression of ATG16L in the brains of human patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) suggests the possibility that a similar mechanism may contribute in human disease. It mentions that pharmacologic suppression of neuroinflammation reversed established memory impairment and markers of disease pathology in the AD model.
