    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Molecular neurodegeneration 2016-08-03 Genetics

    Our study provides new insights into the brain distribution and cellular expression of an important risk factor associated with late-onset AD.

  2. Apoptosis of astrocytes with enhanced lysosomal activity and oligodendrocytes in white matter lesions in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Neuropathology and applied neurobiology 2002-06-01 Biomarkers

    Glial changes are intimately associated with the white matter lesions, and regressive changes in astrocytes and loss of oligodendroglial cells have been reported.
