Human neurons lacking amyloid precursor protein exhibit cholesterol-associated developmental and presynaptic deficits
2022-12-29
Abstract excerpt
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) produces aggregable β-amyloid peptides and its mutations are associated with familial Alzheimer’s disease, which makes it one of the most studied proteins. However, APP’s role in the human brain remains unclear despite years of investigation.
