A new study has revealed that TSPO, a protein linked to brain inflammation, rises long before Alzheimer’s symptoms appear. Researchers tracked the protein in genetically engineered mice and confirmed the results in human brain tissue from Colombian families with a known Alzheimer’s mutation. They found unusually high levels of TSPO in microglia clustered around plaques, particularly in women. This discovery not only deepens our understanding of the disease but also sparks the possibility of using TSPO to detect and treat Alzheimer’s far earlier than ever before.
