Inpp5d deficiency in microglia increases plaque-associated microglia numbers. Loss of Inpp5d induces activation and phagocytosis transcriptional pathways. Plaque encapsulation and engulfment by microglia are enhanced with Inpp5d deletion. Genetic ablation of Inpp5d protects against plaque-induced neuronal dystrophy.
