An inverse-Warburg effect and the origin of Alzheimer's disease.

abstract：:Werner syndrome is the hallmark premature aging disease, where the patients appear much older than their chronological age. The Werner protein, defective in this disorder, is a DNA helicase and an exonuclease, and it participates in pathways of DNA repair, recombination, transcription and replication. The function and...
