🚨Our new paper is out!🚨 We uncover a protective mechanism of the rare APOE3 Christchurch (R136S) mutation against tauopathy—by suppressing microglial cGAS–STING–interferon (IFN) pathway, a key inflammatory axis triggered by tau.

The R136S mutation in the APOE3 gene confers resilience against tau pathology via inhibition of the cGAS-STING-IFN pathway
The Christchurch mutation (R136S) in the APOE3 (E3S/S) gene is associated with attenuated tau load and cognitive decline despite the presence of a cau…
