Abstract excerpt
Variants of the Apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene, particularly the E4 allele, are significantly associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer’s Disease and have been implicated in neuroinflammatory processes due to disrupted lipid metabolism. Lipid alterations can manifest in glial cells as an excessive buildup of lipids, potentially contributing to neuroinflammation. In this study, we observed a heightened lipid loa...
