ABCA7 Lipid Transport and Microglial Phagocytosis AD Causal Chain

🔬 Protein Info
Gene Symbolent-gene-0cd1e1e5
Phospholipid and cholesterol effluxABCA7 facilitates the transport of phospholipids and cholesterol to lipid acceptors, particularly APOE
APOE lipidationABCA7 is critical for the lipidation of APOE particles, which is essential for their function in Aβ clearance and synaptic repair
Membrane lipid homeostasisABCA7 regulates the lipid composition of cellular membranes, particularly in lipid rafts
MicrogliaHighest expression in microglia, particularly in perivascular and brain border-associated macrophages
AstrocytesModerate expression in astrocytes
NeuronsLower expression, primarily in certain neuronal populations
OligodendrocytesLow expression
