Abstract excerpt
The recently discovered interaction between presenilin 1 (PS1), a subunit of γ-secretase involved in amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide production, and GLT-1, the major brain glutamate transporter (EAAT2 in the human), may link two pathological aspects of Alzheimer's disease: abnormal Aβ occurrence and neuronal network hyperactivity. In the current study, we employed a FRET-based fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy...
