Mitochondria, Diabetes, Demetia and SIRT 1
Note:
Recent studies have demonstrated an association between impaired mitochondria (the power plants inside our cells) and dementia, such as is characteristic of patients with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Furthermore, there appears to be an increased incidence of AD in patients with type II diabetes, and evidence indicates that the mitochondria may play a role in this connection.
