Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) controls excitatory/inhibitory synaptic inputs by regulating the transcriptional activator Neuronal PAS Domain Protein 4 (NPAS4)
2018-12-21
Abstract excerpt
Sequential proteolysis of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) and amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) release is an upstream event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis. The function of APP in neuronal physiology is still, however, poorly understood. Along with its paralog APP-like Proteins 1 and 2 (APLP1-2), APP is involved in neurite formation and synaptic function by mechanisms that are not elucidated. APP is a single-pa...
