Early Amyloid-β Toxicity Disrupts Nervous System Connectivity During Aging in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>

2026-07-29

Abstract excerpt

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by progressive functional neuronal decline ultimately resulting in severe cognitive impairment. However, how neuron function is altered at the cellular level during the critical early stages of the disease and how disease progression relates to the process of normal neuronal aging are poorly understood. To address these fundamental questions, we performed comprehensive mul...
