Mitochondria play role in pathogenesis of AD and estrogen-induced neuroprotection
As the major source of free radicals in cells, mitochondria contribute to the high levels of oxidative stress believed to play a role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimers disease. Now, a new study from the laboratory of Dr. Roberta Brinton, University of Southern California, demonstrates that estroge...AlphaRx and Gaia BioPharma Provide GAI-122 Development Update
