Our latest pre-print about the conserved Alzheimer’s disease risk gene Wwox is now available! A lot of hard graft from Hannah Clarke and @danielmaddison.bsky.social and the rest of the team! #drosophila #mitochondria #dementia #Neurodegeneration #metabolism www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Alzheimer's disease risk gene Wwox protects against amyloid pathology through metabolic reprogramming
Genome wide association studies have identified multiple loci that mediate the risk of developing late-onset Alzheimer's Disease (LOAD). The gene WW-domain containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) has been id...

Summary: (1) Baseline axonal SARM1 NADase activity may differ between people due to NMNAT2 differences (2) This may confer risk of miscarriage and neurological disorders (3) NR is safe in most people but there is some need for caution link.springer.com/article/10.1... Congratulations, Christina!
