Intracellular injection of brain extracts from Alzheimer’s disease patients trigger unregulated Ca <sup>2+</sup> release from intracellular stores that hinders cellular bioenergetics
2022-04-30
Abstract excerpt
Strong evidence indicates that amyloid beta (Aβ) inflicts its toxicity in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) by promoting uncontrolled elevation of cytosolic Ca 2+ in neurons. We have previously shown that synthetic Aβ42 oligomers stimulate abnormal intracellular Ca 2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum stores, suggesting that a similar mechanism of Ca 2+ toxicity may be common to the endogenous Aβs oligomers. To inv...
