Kidins220 accumulates with tau in human Alzheimer's disease and related models: modulation of its calpain-processing by GSK3β/PP1 imbalance
31 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
Failures in neurotrophic support and signalling play key roles in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. We previously demonstrated that downregulation of the neurotrophin effector Kinase D interacting substrate (Kidins220) by excitotoxicity and cerebral ischaemia contributed to neuronal death. This downregulation, triggered through overactivation of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs), involved proteolysis...
