Metabolism models may explain why Alzheimer's disease kills some neurone types first

Bioengineers from the University of California, San Diego developed an explanation for why some types of neurones die sooner than others in the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease. These insights, published in the journal Nature Biotechnology on November 21, come from detailed models of brain energy metabolism developed in the Department of Bioengineering at the UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering...
