CRTC1 gene is differentially methylated in the human hippocampus in Alzheimer’s disease
19 Apr 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: CRTC1 (CREB regulated transcription coactivator 1) gene plays a role in synaptic plasticity, learning and long-term memory formation in the hippocampus. Recently, CRTC1 has been shown to be downregulated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying CRTC1 dysregulation in AD remain unclear. METHODS: To understand better the epigenetic mechanisms regulating CRTC1 expression that...
