  1. Mitochondrial DNA abundance in blood is associated with Alzheimer's disease- and dementia-risk

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 69 out of 100. Molecular psychiatry 2024-07-15 Biomarkers

    The mitochondrial cascade hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been portrayed through molecular, cellular, and animal studies; however large epidemiological studies are lacking.

  2. GWAS and ExWAS of blood mitochondrial DNA copy number identifies 71 loci and highlights a potential causal role in dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 52 out of 100. eLife 2022-01-13 Genetics

    Our genetic findings indicate that mtDNA-CN is a complex biomarker reflecting specific MT processes related to mtDNA regulation, and that these processes are causally related to human diseases.

  3. Characterization of mitochondrial DNA quantity and quality in the human aged and Alzheimer's disease brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 57 out of 100. Molecular neurodegeneration 2021-11-06 Genetics

    Changes in the mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn) and increased mitochondrial DNA mutation burden have both been associated with neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive decline.

  4. Mitochondrial DNA point mutations and relative copy number in 1363 disease and control human brains

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 55 out of 100. Acta neuropathologica communications 2017-02-02 Genetics

    Mitochondria play a key role in common neurodegenerative diseases and contain their own genome: mtDNA.

  5. Mitochondrial DNA copy numbers in pyramidal neurons are decreased and mitochondrial biogenesis transcriptome signaling is disrupted in Alzheimer's disease hippocampi

    ✓ 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.
