Complement pathway dysregulation and astrocyte alterations in Down syndrome: evidence from postmortem brain tissue and iPSC-derived astrocytes [PDF]
Background Down syndrome (DS), or trisomy 21 (T21), resulting from an extra copy of chromosome 21, occurs in 1 in 700–1,000 live births. Neuroinflammation is increasingly recognized as a critical contributor to DS neuropathology, although its underlying ...
