## Mechanistic Overview
Novel Hypothesis on Metabolic Dysregulation in Neurodegeneration rests on the following mechanistic claim: This hypothesis proposes that mitochondrial dysfunction in astrocytes represents a critical upstream driver of neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease through disruption of lactate shuttling to neurons. Specifically, we hypothesize that accumulation of amyloid-beta oligomers selectively impairs the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I in astrocytes, leading to
