Neuronal Transcriptome Disruption, Tau Accumulation and Synapse Loss in Alzheimer's Knock-in Mice Require Cellular Prion Protein
Austin J. Stoner, Li Fu, LaShae Nicholson…·Stephen M. Strittmatter
This study shows that PrPC is necessary for synapse loss, phospho-tau accumulation, and neuronal gene expression changes in Alzheimer's knock-in mice, suggesting targeting the Aβo-PrPC interaction could prevent these pathologies.
