Perimenopausal hormonal imbalances drive Alzheimer’s risk, plasma E2:P4 ratio a potential biomarker

Researchers from the School of Life Sciences and the Gerald Choa Neuroscience Institute at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) have found that estradiol (E2) to progesterone (P4) (E2:P4) imbalance during perimenopause likely increases the risk of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related dementia in women via oestrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRα) dysfunction.
