The signaling function of CHI3L1/YKL‐40 in neuroinflammation and Alzheimer’s disease
Our findings provide the pioneering evidence for the biological role of CHI3L1 in the brain, departing from its long-regarded role as merely a biomarker. The discoveries we made here would be highly advantageous for the development of much-needed therapeutics to prevent neuroinflammatory toxicity in AD and relevant brain disorders.
