Single-cell RNA-sequencing has identified that Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology in humans is associated with activation of disease-associated microglia (DAM). Microglial signatures of human AD have not been consistently identified in AD mouse models. Since the inflammatory response of rats is more like humans, we profiled microglial transcriptomes in aging TgF344-AD rats, which overexpress two human AD risk genes. Classic DAM gene activation ( Show less
