Sex moderates apolipoprotein E ε4 effects on sleep expression and memory retention

2026-04-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Sleep-dependent memory consolidation differs by sex and maybe disrupted by Alzheimer’s disease (AD) risk. Whether sex moderates associations between apolipoprotein E ε4 ( APOE ε4 ) status, non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, and memory remains unclear. <h4>Methods</h4> Eighty cognitively unimpaired older adults completed a word-pair memory task with encoding and immediate testing occurri...
