Description

The abstract mentions RNA sequencing identified 4 enriched pathways but cuts off before revealing them. These pathways could provide crucial insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effects and guide future intervention strategies.

Gap type: open_question Source paper: Enhanced delivery of a low dose of aducanumab via FUS in 5×FAD mice, an AD model. (None, None, PMID:36575534)
