In this study, sorting of CD45+ immune cells from brains of mice harboring 5 Familial Alzheimer Disease mutations (5xFAD) at different ages revealed three clusters of microglial cells consisting of one large cluster of homeostatic cells and two small ones associated to disease and displaying a unique molecular signature including lipid metabolism and phagocytic genes like Apoe, lipoprotein lipase, and cystatin F [40]. The gene discussed is APOE; the disease is Alzheimer disease.
