APOE-ε4 genes may accelerate the activation of the latent form of HSV-1 which would lead to a faster progression of AD
This study investigates the impact of APOE alleles and latent Herpes Simplex Type 1 virus (HSV-1) activation on Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression using the 5xFAD mouse model. APOE ε4 is recognized as a substantial genetic risk factor for sporadic AD, while HSV-1 has been linked to AD pathogenesis...
