The road that ends with Alzheimer’s

 APOE and CLU. Without APOE and CLU, neurons cannot properly regulate lipids, which accumulate in droplets that may impair neurons’ abilities to communicate with each other. The researchers verified their lab-based results by examining natural genetic variation in SORL1 expression in the brain tissue of 50 members of the cohorts, finding again that lower SORL1 activity in neurons was correlated with reduced APOE and CLU in these people. Historically, researchers have studied three potent genetic drivers of Alzheimer’s disease (APP, PSEN1 and PSEN2), which are commonly mutated in hereditary, early-onset Alzheimer’s (AD diagnosis before age 65). Preclinical models and cell-based systems largel...                    </div>
