Abstract excerpt
Small GTPases of the Rho family, including Rho, Rac and CDC42 subfamilies, play key role in neural connectivity and cognition. The pharmacological modulation of these regulatory proteins is associated with enhancement of learning and memory. We sought to determine whether the modulation of cerebral Rho GTPases may correct behavioral disturbances in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD). TgCRND8 mice show...
