Familial Alzheimer’s disease mutation undermines axonal transport by enhancing dynactin recruitment to the APP motor assemblies
2022-11-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Experiments in flies, mice and humans suggest a significant role of impaired axonal transport in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), however, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown 1,2 . We report that the Swedish familial AD (FAD) mutation perturbs fast anterograde axonal transport of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by altering directionality of its movement. APP thus spends mo...
