Opposing role of phagocytic receptors MERTK and AXL in Progranulin deficient FTD

Abstract Genetic mutations in the progranulin gene, GRN, cause frontotemporal dementia and a lysosomal storage disorder. Using single-nuclei RNA sequencing of the post-mortem brain tissue from adult heterozygous pathogenic granulin variant (GRN+/−) carriers we find dysregulation of microglia, phagoc...
