Uncoupling protein 2 haplotype does not affect human brain structure and function in a sample of community-dwelling older adults.

Uncoupling protein 2 haplotype does not affect human brain structure and function in a sample of community-dwelling older adults.

Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) is a mitochondrial membrane protein that plays a role in uncoupling electron transport from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) formation. Polymorphisms of the UCP2 gene in humans affect protein expression and function and have been linked to survival into old age. Since UCP2 is...
