ApoE4 disrupts interaction of sortilin with fatty acid-binding protein 7 essential to promote lipid signaling
2021-05-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Sortilin is a receptor for neuronal uptake of apolipoprotein E. Sortilin-dependent uptake of lipidated apoE promotes conversion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) into neuromodulators that induce anti-inflammatory gene expression in the brain. This neuroprotective pathway works with apoE3 but is lost with apoE4, the main risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here, we elucidated steps in c...
