Bridging Integrator 1 (BIN1) Protein Expression Increases in the Alzheimer's Disease Brain and Correlates with Neurofibrillary Tangle Pathology
10 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
Recent genome wide association studies have implicated bridging integrator 1 (BIN1) as a late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) susceptibility gene. There are at least 15 different known isoforms of BIN1, with many being expressed in the brain including the longest isoform (iso1), which is brain-specific and localizes to axon initial segments and nodes of Ranvier. It is currently unknown what role BIN1 plays in AD....
