Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Mikaila Ann Bantugan"
- Mikaila Ann Bantugan's recent research primarily focuses on the implications of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) glycosylation and its relationship with Alzheimer's disease, particularly in individuals carrying the APOE4 allele, known to significantly increase the risk of cerebral amyloidosis.
- In her 2023 study published in Alzheimer's Research & Therapy, Bantugan identified distinct cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) apoE glycosylation profiles, with results indicating that the E4 isoform has the lowest glycosylation percentage, suggesting a potential metabolic pathway that could affect Alzheimer's disease progression.
- Another study published in the Journal of Lipid Research examines the effects of APOE4 status and DHA supplementation on lipid profiles and entorhinal cortex thickness, highlighting the role of polyunsaturated fatty acids in Alzheimer's disease and their metabolism influenced by the ApoE allele.
