The Alzheimer’s gene SORL1 is a regulator of endosomal traffic and recycling in human neurons
28 Feb 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Loss of the Sortilin-related receptor 1 (SORL1) gene seems to act as a causal event for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recent studies have established that loss of SORL1, as well as mutations in autosomal dominant AD genes APP and PSEN1/2, pathogenically converge by swelling early endosomes, AD's cytopathological hallmark. Acting together with the retromer trafficking complex, SORL1 has been shown to...
