Abstract:Introduction: Reduced brain energy metabolism, mTOR dysregulation, and extracellular amyloid-β oligomer (xcAβO) buildup characterize AD; how they collectively promote neurodegeneration is poorly understood. We previously reported that xcAβOs inhibit Nutrient-induced Mitochondrial Activity (NiMA) in cultured neurons. We now report NiMA disruption in vivo. Methods: Brain energy metabolism and oxygen consumption were recorded in APPSAA/+ mice using two-photon fluorescence lifetime imaging and multiparametric phot… Show more
