Title:

Measuring nucleotide excision repair in Alzheimer’s disease patients

Dates: 9/15/2020 - 6/30/2021
Sponsor:

NIH

Principal Investigator: Feng Lin, PhD, RN
Description:

The goal is to test the hypothesis that MCI is associated with a reduced capacity for NER of DNA adducts, suggesting that suboptimal DNA repair might be a risk factor for AD and related dementias.
