“…A decline in mitochondrial function can occur decades prior to clinical diagnosis of AD and thus may serve as a biomarker of AD risk, as well as a therapeutic target [12,24,32,67]. Preclinical in vitro and in vivo AD models have demonstrated a decline in mitochondrial function, including reduced mitochondrial respiration, decreased metabolic enzyme expression and activity, increased oxidative stress, and increased mitochondrial Aβ load and ABAD expression, prior to AD pathology [12,13,15,24,34,38].…”
