    Snippet: Many AD gene variants from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) also converge towards the common effect of increasing A␤ production [78, 79] . In the circulation, amyloid-␤ protein precursor (A␤PP) and ␥-secretase are highly expressed in the dendritic cells that scout for invading pathogens [80] . In this context, enhanced A␤ production can also be considered as evolutionarily advantageous [81] . This theme is carried through in postm.....
    Document: Many AD gene variants from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) also converge towards the common effect of increasing A␤ production [78, 79] . In the circulation, amyloid-␤ protein precursor (A␤PP) and ␥-secretase are highly expressed in the dendritic cells that scout for invading pathogens [80] . In this context, enhanced A␤ production can also be considered as evolutionarily advantageous [81] . This theme is carried through in postmortem studies showing that neuroinflammatory changes are prevalent in vulnerable regions of the AD brain [82, 83] . The proteins found in plaques and tangles also contain many related to the immune system, inflammation and autophagy, all of which play a general role in pathogen defense [84] [85] [86] as does A␤.
