Mechanistic Exploration and the Development of New Biomarkers for Alzheimer’s Disease – Focusing on the Brain ‘Garbage’ Clearance System
New biomarkers may be key to earlier Alzheimer’s diagnosis and treatment. This article explores recent research into the brain’s “garbage” clearance system, specifically focusing on mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy), and its potential as a target for Alzheimer’s biomarkers and therapies.
