BIN1 protein isoforms are differentially expressed in astrocytes, neurons, and microglia: neuronal and astrocyte BIN1 are implicated in tau pathology
29 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Identified as an Alzheimer's disease (AD) susceptibility gene by genome wide-association studies, BIN1 has 10 isoforms that are expressed in the Central Nervous System (CNS). The distribution of these isoforms in different cell types, as well as their role in AD pathology still remains unclear. METHODS: Utilizing antibodies targeting specific BIN1 epitopes in human post-mortem tissue and analyzing...
