Diaphanous 1 (DIAPH1) is Highly Expressed in the Aged Human Medial Temporal Cortex and Upregulated in Myeloid Cells During Alzheimer’s Disease

Abstract

Our findings localize DIAPH1 particularly to myeloid cells in the CNS, especially in AD in the locations of lipid droplet accumulation, thereby implicating RAGE-DIAPH1 signaling in dysregulated lipid metabolism and morphological changes of inflamed myeloid cells in this disorder.
