Aberrant Mitochondrial Metabolism in Alzheimer's Disease Links Energy Stress with Ferroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Alves et al. reveal how energy loss and oxidative stress, two major features of Alzheimer's disease, are connected. Mitochondria controls the flux of the antioxidant glutathione (GSH), via facilitating both its production and consumption. Energy restriction limits GSH synthesis, conferring vulnerability to cell death by ferroptosis, implicated as a ...
