Ethanol induces neuroimmune dysregulation and soluble TREM2 generation in a human iPSC neuron, astrocyte, microglia triculture model

Andrew J. Boreland, Yara Abbo, Xindi Li…·Ronald P. Hart

This study shows ethanol exposure in a human iPSC-derived triculture model increases TREM2 expression and soluble TREM2 through alternative splicing, suggesting a link to neuroimmune dysregulation in alcohol use disorders.
