Emerging roles of apolipoprotein E4 in cerebral small vessel disease-related cognitive impairment: mechanistic insights and therapeutic perspectives
Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is a major contributor to cognitive decline and vascular cognitive impairment in the elderly. However, the extent to which apolipoprotein E4 (ApoE4) contributes to sporadic, non-amyloid CSVD remains unclear. Previous literature has often inferred CSVD mechanisms from Alzheimer’s dis...
