Differential Effect of APOE Alleles on Brain Glucose Metabolism in Targeted Replacement Mice: An [18F]FDG-μPET Study
10 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
Background: The Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) alleles ɛ2, ɛ3, and ɛ4 are known to differentially modulate cerebral glucose metabolism and the risk for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) via both amyloid-β (Aβ)-dependent and independent mechanisms. Objective: We investigated the influence of ApoE on cerebral glucose metabolism in humanized APOE Targeted Replacement (TR) mice at ages that precede the comparison of Aβ parenchymal...
