APOE genotype-dependent differences in human astrocytic energy metabolism

2025-04-02

Abstract excerpt

The main genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the presence of the apolipoprotein E4 ( APOE4 ) allele. While APOE4 increases the risk of developing AD, the APOE2 allele is protective and APOE3 is risk-neutral. In the brain, APOE is primarily expressed by astrocytes and plays a key role in various processes including cholesterol and lipid transport, neuronal growth, synaptic plasticity, immune res...
