Abstract excerpt
Mutations in presenilins (PS) account for most early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD). Accumulating evidence suggests that disrupted Ca(2+) signaling may play a proximal role in FAD specifically, and Alzheimer's disease (AD) more generally, but its links to the pathogenesis of AD are obscure. Here we demonstrate that expression of FAD mutant PS constitutively activates the transcription factor cAMP...
