## Mechanistic Overview LXRβ-Selective Agonism as a Precision Therapeutic for APOE4-Driven Myelin Deficits starts from the claim that modulating NR1H2 (LXRβ) within the disease context of neurodegeneration can redirect a disease-relevant process. The original description reads: "## Mechanistic Overview LXRβ-Selective Agonism as a Precision Therapeutic for APOE4-Driven Myelin Deficits starts from the claim that APOE4 impairs the ability of oligodendrocytes to efflux and distribute cholesterol for

## Mechanistic Overview TREM2-Dependent Astrocyte-Microglia Cross-talk in Neurodegeneration starts from the claim that modulating TREM2 within the disease context of neurodegeneration can redirect a disease-relevant process. The original description reads: "## **Molecular Mechanism and Rationale** The TREM2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells 2) signaling cascade represents a critical node in neuroinflammation regulation, with its dysfunction fundamentally altering astrocyte-microgli
