    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2014-01-01 Biomarkers

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the major cause of adult-onset dementia and is characterized in its pre-diagnostic stage by reduced cerebral cortical glucose metabolism and in later stages by reduced cortical oxygen uptake, implying reduced mitochondrial respiration.

  2. Impaired mitochondrial biogenesis contributes to mitochondrial dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of neurochemistry 2011-12-08 Risk genes beyond APOE

    Mitochondrial dysfunction is a prominent feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain.
