Mitochondrion
. 2022 Dec;
68:125-137.
PMID: 36516926
While ketone bodies support overall brain energy metabolism, it is increasingly clear specific brain cell types respond differently to ketone body availability. Here, we characterized how SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell, primary...

. 2021 Nov;
85(1):381-394.
PMID: 34806611
Background: Amyloid-β (Aβ), which derives from the amyloid-β protein precursor (AβPP), forms plaques and serves as a fluid biomarker in Alzheimer's disease (AD). How Aβ forms from AβPP is known,...

Aging Cell
. 2021 May;
20(5):e13356.
PMID: 33939248
We examined the impact of an APOE ε4 genotype on Alzheimer's disease (AD) subject platelet and lymphocyte metabolism. Mean platelet mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase Vmax activity was lower in APOE ε4...

J Neurochem
. 2021 Feb;
157(6):1930-1945.
PMID: 33539571
Ketogenic diets (KDs) alter brain metabolism. Multiple mechanisms may account for their effects, and different brain regions may variably respond. Here, we considered how a KD affects brain neuron and...

J Alzheimers Dis
. 2020 Aug;
77(1):149-163.
PMID: 32804126
Background: Mitochondrial dysfunction and tau aggregation occur in Alzheimer's disease (AD), and exposing cells or rodents to mitochondrial toxins alters their tau. Objective: To further explore how mitochondria influence tau,...

J Alzheimers Dis
. 2019 Feb;
67(3):1021-1034.
PMID: 30714956
Recent association studies indicate several genes highly expressed by microglia influence Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, which suggests microglial function contributes to this disease. Here, we evaluated how one component of...

Neurochem Res
. 2018 Aug;
44(1):12-21.
PMID: 30084096
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that devastates the lives of its victims, and challenges the family members and health care infrastructures that care for them. Clinically, attempts to...
