Two injections of rh Bri2 BRICHOS R221E per week for three months in AD mice reduced amyloid β (Aβ) burden, and mitigated astro- and microgliosis, as determined by glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba1) immunohistochemistry. Here, ITM2B is linked to Alzheimer disease.
