**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
TREM2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells 2) functions as a crucial immune checkpoint regulator on microglia, orchestrating a complex cascade of intracellular signaling pathways that fundamentally alter microglial activation states and phagocytic capacity. The TREM2 receptor forms a signaling complex with DAP12 (DNAX-activation protein 12), which contains immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) essential for downstream signal tra
