PPARgamma agonists as therapeutics for the treatment of Alzheimer's diseaseGary Landreth
Alzheimer Research Laboratory, Department of Neurosciences, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, Ohio 44106, USA
Neurotherapeutics 5:481-9. 2008..Recent clinical trials of the PPARgamma agonist rosiglitazone have shown significant improvement in memory and cognition in AD patients. Thus, PPARgamma represents an important new therapeutic target in treating AD...

Research Grants
- Microglial Signaling Mechanisms in Alzheimer's DiseaseGary E Landreth; Fiscal Year: 2010..We propose to definitively test whether oxidative damage observed in an animal model of AD is due to NADPH oxidase action by examination of animals in which the oxidase has been genetically inactivated. ..
- LXR and PPARgamma mediated Abeta clearance mechanismsGary E Landreth; Fiscal Year: 2010..We will test if the actions of PPARy on A clearance are secondary to, and reliant upon, LXR function. ..
