'APOE Gene Variants & Alzheimer’s Disease Risk: details you should know'
23:48 Apr 7, 2023
'APOE is involved in lipid metabolism and its different gene variants impact your future risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, other neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases.   Lets review the details.

Hormone sensitive lipase facilitates your metabolic withdrawals.   09:42 Your omega 3 index and APE 4 isoform.   11:35 APOE4 and cholesterol  11:45 ApoB VS ApoE  12:09 APOE2 carriers tend to have a less atherogenic lipid profile.    12:15 APOE4 carriers are associated with decreased levels of APOE triglycerides and increased levels of APOB in lipoproteins  13:12 APOE4 puts genotype carriers at increased risk for heart disease. This is likely due to the association with APOE4 and elevated LDL and Apolipoprotein B. 14:07 APOE4 primes your microglia to be more inflammatory. Microglia are brain immune cells. They are involved in synaptic processing, pruning of cells, shaping neurons, and removing inflammatory debris. APOE4 carriers have decreased cerebral glucose metabolism and increased levels of beta amyloid and tau protein. 15:50 With APOE4, there are changes and increase of tau protein within the neurons. There are also alterations in the blood brain barrier integrity.  16:00 To preserve the integrity of the brain, moderate alcohol consumption, increase exercise, incorporate sauna therapy and sauna bathing, as it effects cerebral blood flow.  16:45 APOE is expressed in astrocytes, microglia and other vascular cells within the brain. Blood brain barrier prevents toxins and metabolic waste from going into your brain. Increased expression of APOE is detected in stressed neurons.  17:42 APOE isoforms affect lipid transport, glucose metabolism, mitochondrial function, synaptic plasticity, beta amyloid protein expression, tau protein and cerebral vascular function within the brain. 18:18 Ratio of APOE4 allele correlates with loss of gray matter volume and abnormal glucose metabolism, a hallmark of Alzheimer’s and dementia.  19:00 APOE4 is the greatest genetic risk factor for late onset Alzheimer’s disease. It also influences the risk and outcomes for stroke, MS, Parkinson’s disease, and frontotemporal dementia.  22:11 A low carb diet, high in wild caught fish, is protective for APOE4 carriers. It impacts brain metabolism and lipid levels favorably. Drive your glycemic load down. 24:05 If you are over the age of 50 and have one or two copies of the APOE4 allele, consider microdosing with rapamycin. Rapamycin is an mTOR inhibitor. It may delay the onset of Alzheimer’s and dementia.'
