Accelerated brain aging towards transcriptional inversion in a zebrafish model of the K115fs mutation of human PSEN2
24 Jan 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The molecular changes involved in Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression remain unclear since we cannot easily access antemortem human brains. Some non-mammalian vertebrates such as the zebrafish preserve AD-relevant transcript isoforms of the PRESENILIN genes lost from mice and rats. One example is PS2V, the alternative transcript isoform of the PSEN2 gene. PS2V is induced by hypoxia/oxidative stress...
