Presenilin-deficient neurons and astrocytes display normal mitochondrial phenotypes
2020-07-16
Abstract excerpt
Presenilins 1 and 2 (PS1 and PS2) are predominantly known as the catalytic subunits of the γ-secretase complex which generates the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide, the major constituent of the senile plaques found in the brain of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients. Apart from their role in γ-secretase activity, a growing number of cellular functions have been recently attributed to PSs. They are involved in synaptic transmi...
