  1. Protective genes and pathways in Alzheimer's disease: moving towards precision interventions

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Molecular neurodegeneration 2021-04-29 Genetics

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by neurodegeneration, cognitive impairment, and an eventual inability to perform daily tasks.

  2. Association of APOE With Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma Suggests a Protective Effect for APOE ε4

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 46 out of 100. Investigative ophthalmology & visual science 2020-07-01 TREM2 and immune genetics

    We have found that the APOE ε4 allele is associated with a reduced risk of POAG.

  3. Protective effect of tetrahydropalmatine against d-galactose induced memory impairment in rat

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Physiology & behavior 2015-11-22 Biomarkers

    Aging is associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), cardiovascular disease and cancer.
