Abstract excerpt
Abnormalities in cultured fibroblasts from familial Alzheimer's Disease (FAD) cases uniquely enable the determination of how gene defects alter cell biology in living tissue from affected individuals. The current study focused on measures of calcium regulation and oxidative metabolism in fibroblast lines from controls and FAD individuals with the Swedish APP670/671 mutation. Bombesin-induced elevations in calcium...
