Sting and p53 DNA repair pathways are compromised in Alzheimer’s disease

Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. A common finding in AD is DNA damage. Double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) are particularly hazardous to neurons because their post-mitotic state forces neurons to rely on error-prone and potentially mutagenic mechanisms to repair DN...
