While many potential mechanisms have been proposed to explain this risk, no dominant or unifying process has yet emerged. Here, we explore the primary function of apolipoprotein E in lipid transport and metabolism, by examining its lipid association properties, to establish whether they show isoform dependence and thereby could mediate Alzheim ...[more]
