Exploring the parity paradox: Differential effects on neuroplasticity and neuroinflammation by APOEe4 genotype at middle-age

Female sex and Apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 genotype are top non-modifiable risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Although female-unique experiences like parity (pregnancy and motherhood) have positive effects on neuroplasticity at middle age, previous pregnancy may also contribute to AD risk.
