Abeta mediates F-actin disassembly in dendritic spines leading to cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease.
Dendritic spine loss is recognized as an early feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Dendritic spine structure is defined by filamentous actin (F-actin) and we observed depolymerization of synaptosomal F..... Read More
