Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>A growing body of evidence suggests a correlation between cholesterol metabolism and the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). We and others have demonstrated that the activation of the cholesterol 24-hydroxylase enzyme, CYP46A1, responsible for converting cholesterol to 24S-hydroxycholesterol (24-OHC) in the brain, is an effective therapeutic strategy for several neurodegenerative...
