CYP46: a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease or a coincidence?

abstract：BACKROUND:8-hydroxy-2 deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and the 8-hydroxyguanosine (8-OHG) are the most widely used biomarkers of nucleoside oxidation affecting DNA and RNA and are considered reliable markers of oxidative stress. Increased levels of these markers are found in the various biological fluids of patients with neurod...
