pubmed:abstractText |
Previous studies have shown that patients with early onset of Alzheimer disease and vascular dementia have higher levels of circulating brain-derived 24S-hydroxycholesterol (cerebrosterol). Two recent epidemiological studies indicated that treatment with inhibitors of cholesterol synthesis (statins) reduces the incidence of Alzheimer disease.
