Does statin use affect amyloid beta deposition and brain metabolism?

The present longitudinal analysis revealed that using statins might be beneficial in slowing down or stabilizing the Aβ deposition due to aging in subjects without cognitive impairment. However, once the clinical symptoms of cognitive impairment appear, statins fail to slow down Aβ deposition. Overall, our findings revealed that statin users might have slower Aβ aggregation than non-users.
