In clinical settings, AD is defined by characteristic deficits in neuropsychological testing supported by amyloid and tau biomarkers and neuroimaging abnormalities. The biological cause of neuropsychological changes is not established. Tau deposition correlates with, but does not fully account for all observed neuropsychological impairments. We have shown mitochondrial spare respiratory capacity (MRSC) is lowered in AD patient fibroblasts. This study investigates if fibroblast mitochondrial function… Show more
