Researchers combined animal models, human brain tissue, and molecular analysis to uncover a connection between Alzheimer’s disease, cell function issues, and cholesterol in the brain.
A research team from the Keck School of Medicine at USC has identified the mechanisms of a cellular pathway that drives inflammation and aging, particularly in individuals with the APOE4 genetic risk for Alzheimer’s disease. Their study also reveals a method for restoring cells to a healthy state, offering a potential new avenue for treatment. This discovery, the result of a…
