Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that is characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary Tau tangles, ultimately leading to brain atrophy and death. To elucidate the relationship between the aberrant folding and aggregation of Aβ and mutant Tau and neuronal function, we monitored neuronal activity in C. elegans AD models across age. For that, we...
