Phase 2 clinical trials reported improvements in cognitive functions of AD patients after MB treatment. However, the exact mechanism of action of MB is still controversial and needs further investigations. Recently, the mitochondrial enzyme amyloid binding alcohol dehydrogenase (ABAD) has been shown to bind AÝ inducing mitochondrial dysfunction, providing a direct relation between AÝ and mitochondrial dysfunction occurring in AD
