Aberrant Synaptic PTEN in Symptomatic Alzheimer's Patients May Link Synaptic Depression to Network Failure

In Alzheimer's disease (AD), Amyloid beta (A beta) impairs synaptic function by inhibiting long-term potentiation (LTP), and by facilitating long-term depression (LTD). There is now evidence from AD models that A beta provokes this shift toward synaptic depression by triggering the access to an...
