Further reading of "Phagocytic Clearance in Neurodegeneration" revealed that AB (which form?) causes an inflammatory response in microglia that is responsible for neurodegeneration, while upregulating anti-inflammatory cytokines could help increase phagocytic activity and reduce neurodegeneration. Could that be an added/alternate approach? How would we test if it is working?
