Fig. 9: Proposed mechanisms by which TFEB governs B-lymphoid fate decisions.

TFEB governs B-lymphoid fate decisions.

TFEB activation hallmarks antigenic experience of B lymphocytes and directs germinal center fate decisions Antigenic stimulation triggers TFEB to move into the nucleus, where it can

Age-related myelin damage

Amyloidosis triggers age-related oligodendrocyte and myelin damage

Age-related myelin damage leads to white matter inflammation, but its impact on chronic neurodegenerative diseases remains unclear. A recent study reveals that amyloidosis alone can cause
