Reduced phosphatases and hyperphosphorylated glutamatergic receptors persist from early to late stages of prion disease

Alexander J. Rajic, Daniel Ojeda-Juárez, Dipannita Sarkar…·Christina J. Sigurdson

This study shows that phosphatase reduction and receptor hyperphosphorylation occur early in prion disease and precede inflammation.

Aquaporin-4 mislocalization from astrocyte endfeet prolongs survival in a prion-cerebral amyloid angiopathy model

Samantha Flores, Amanda Wilpitz, Daniel Ojeda-Juárez…·Christina J. Sigurdson

This study shows that reducing AQP4 function in a prion-CAA mouse model prolongs survival and reduces neuroinflammation without affecting prion spread.
