Abstract excerpt
Sleep disturbances are early hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias, yet the molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. We previously showed that dipeptidyl aminopeptidase-like protein 6-knockout (DPP6-KO) mice exhibit accelerated neurodegeneration with synaptic loss, neuronal death, and circadian dysfunction resembling AD pathology. Here, we investigate whether DPP6 deficiency directly...
