Effect of amyloid precursor protein and tau on dendritic spines and cell survival in an ex vivo model of Alzheimer s disease
Alzheimer s disease is characterized by synaptic alterations and neurodegeneration. Histopathological hallmarks represent amyloidplaques composed of amyloid-beta (Abeta) and neurofibrillary tangles containing hyperphosphorylated tau. To determine whether synaptic changes and neurodegeneration share...
