    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Experimental neurology 2023-03-04 TREM2 and immune genetics

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is closely related to hippocampal synapse loss, which can be alleviated by running exercise.

  2. Iron-export ferroxidase activity of β-amyloid precursor protein is inhibited by zinc in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Cell 2010-09-01 Risk genes beyond APOE

    Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is complicated by pro-oxidant intraneuronal Fe(2+) elevation as well as extracellular Zn(2+) accumulation within amyloid plaque.
