RESUMO
The neuroimmune system is crucial for the development， aging， and damage of the central nervous system， and has gradually become a research hotspot. Triggeringreceptor expressed on myeloid cells-2 （TREM2） is a transmembrane receptor of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is mainly expressed in the microglia in the central nervous system. An increasing number of studies indicate that TREM2 has great potential to improve cognitive dysfunction related to Alzheimer's disease， vascular dementia， Parkinson's disease， postoperative cognitive impairment， obesity， etc. However， there is a lack of a systematic summary of the specific role of TREM2 in cognitive dysfunction. This paper reviews the progress in the latest research on the related mechanisms of TREM2 in cognitive dysfunction， in order to provide new strategies for the treatment of cognitive dysfunction.
