Molecular interplay between hyperactive mammalian target of rapamycin signaling and Alzheimer’s disease neuropathology in the NS-Pten knockout mouse model
30 Jun 2018
Abstract excerpt
Dysregulation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling cascade has been associated with the pathology of neurodegenerative disorders, specifically Alzheimer's disease (AD). Both in-vivo models and post-mortem brain samples of individuals with AD have commonly shown hyperactivation of the pathway. In the present study, we examine how neuron subset-specific deletion of Pten (NS-Pten) in mice, which presents with hyperactive...
