Prenatal Pesticide Exposure and Early Alzheimer Disease-Related Biomarker and Cognitive Changes in Midlife

2026-05-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Importance</h4> Alzheimer disease (AD) pathogenesis begins decades before clinical symptoms, yet environmental determinants of early disease risk, particularly during fetal development, remain largely uncharacterized. Prenatal exposure to dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE), the primary persistent metabolite of DDT, is a biologically plausible early contributor to AD risk given its long half-life in human...
