Abstract

APOE4 is the strongest genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). Narayan and Sienski et al. find that APOE4 disrupts early endocytosis, a process by which cells take up external material. By increasing the levels of another AD risk factor, PICALM, the authors are able to reverse these disruptions.
