Abstract excerpt
APOE4 encoding apolipoprotein (Apo)E4 is the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). ApoE is key in intercellular lipid trafficking. Fatty acids are essential for brain integrity and cognitive performance and are implicated in neurodegeneration. We determined the sex- and age-dependent effect of AD and APOE4 on brain free fatty acid (FFA) profiles. FFA profiles were determined by LC-MS/MS in...
