ApoE isoform-specific effects on LTP: blockade by oligomeric amyloid-β1–42

Amyloid-β1–42 (Aβ1–42) is crucial to Alzheimer disease (AD) pathogenesis but the conformation of the toxic Aβ species remains uncertain. AD risk is increased by apolipoprotein E4 (apoE4) and decreased by apoE2 compared with the apoE3 isoform, but whether inheritance of apoE4 represents a gain of neg...
