Suppression of the dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase gene ( <i>dld-1</i> ) protects against the toxicity of human amyloid beta in <i>C. elegans</i> model of Alzheimer’s disease
2017-12-04
Abstract excerpt
Declines in energy metabolism and associated mitochondrial enzymes are linked to the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase ( dld ) and two of its enzyme complexes namely, pyruvate dehydrogenase and α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase are associated with AD and have a significant role in energy metabolism. Interestingly, dld gene variants are genetically linked to late-onset AD; and re...
