<i>APOE4</i>and Infectious Diseases Jointly Contribute to Brain Glucose Hypometabolism, a Biomarker of Alzheimer’s Pathology: New Findings from the ADNI
2024-09-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Impaired brain glucose metabolism is a preclinical feature of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Infections may promote AD-related pathology. Therefore, we investigated the interplay between infections and APOE4 , a strong genetic risk factor for AD. <h4>Methods</h4> We analyzed data on 1,509 participants in the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) databa...
