  1. Altered lipid metabolism in brain injury and disorders

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Sub-cellular biochemistry 2008-01-01 Genetics

    Deregulated lipid metabolism may be of particular importance for CNS injuries and disorders, as this organ has the highest lipid concentration next to adipose tissue.

  2. Alzheimer's pathology in human temporal cortex surgically excised after severe brain injury

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Experimental neurology 2004-11-01 Genetics

    Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a risk factor for the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  3. Identification of CD40 ligand in Alzheimer's disease and in animal models of Alzheimer's disease and brain injury

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neurobiology of aging 2002-01-01 Biomarkers

    Chronic neuroinflammatory processes including glial activation may play a role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
