Recently, it was shown that loss-of-function mutations of the innate microglial immune receptor triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-2 (TREM2) led to a chronic neurodegenerative disease, named Nasu-Hakola disease or polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy (PLOSL).

These data suggest that a mutational burden in TREM2 may serve as a risk factor for neurodegenerative disease in general, and that potentially this class of TREM2 variant carriers with dementia should be considered as having a molecularly distinct form of neurodegenerative disease.
