Dyslipidemia and dementia: current epidemiology, genetic evidence, and mechanisms behind the associations.

Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD - 1 Jan 2012

Reitz Christiane

Abstract excerpt

The role of cholesterol in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is still controversial. Some studies exploring the association between lipids and/or lipid lowering treatment and AD indicate a harmful effect of dyslipidemia and a beneficial effect of statin therapy on AD risk. The findings are supported by genetic linkage and association studies that have clearly identified several genes involved in...
