Synaptic dysfunction induced by Aβ oligomers in Alzheimer's disease: AKAP150-NFAT signalling as a molecular target
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia worldwide and to this day no effective cure has been found. Various studies suggest that synaptic dysfunction is one of the earliest pathological events in this disease, preceding even clinical symptoms. In this regard, soluble amyloi...

| Sumario: | Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia worldwide and to this day no effective cure has been found. Various studies suggest that synaptic dysfunction is one of the earliest pathological events in this disease, preceding even clinical symptoms. In this regard, soluble amyloid-beta oligomers (Aβo) have been identified as neurotoxic compounds that can alter synaptic function. The aim of this study is to investigate the molecular effects of Aβo on some key components of the postsynaptic signalling complex in hippocampal neuronal cultures, focusing on the AKAP-CaN-NFAT |
