Metabolic drift in the aging nervous system is reflected in human cerebrospinal fluid

Abstract Chronic diseases affecting the central nervous system (CNS) like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease typically develop with advanced chronological age. Yet, aging at the metabolic level has been explored only sporadically in humans using biofluids in close proximity to the CNS such as the ce...
