AMPA-ergic regulation of amyloid-β levels in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model

Abstract Background Extracellular aggregation of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide into toxic multimers is a key event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis. Aβ aggregation is concentration-dependent, with higher concentrations of Aβ much more likely to form toxic species. The processes that regulate ex...
