Journal ArticleDOI

Synapse Dysfunction of Layer V Pyramidal Neurons Precedes Neurodegeneration in a Mouse Model of TDP-43 Proteinopathies

TL;DR: It is concluded that mutated TDP-43 has a significant pathological effect at the dendritic spine that is associated with attenuated neural transmission and reduced efficacy of synaptic transmission as determined by electrophysiology at P60.
Journal ArticleDOI

Calretinin and Neuropeptide Y interneurons are differentially altered in the motor cortex of the SOD1 G93A mouse model of ALS

TL;DR: It is concluded that a differential capacity for interneurons exists in the ALS motor cortex, which may not be a static phenomenon, but involves early dynamic changes throughout disease, implicating specific inhibitory circuitry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis mutant TDP-43 may cause synaptic dysfunction through altered dendritic spine function.

TL;DR: This work reveals a crucial effect of the over-expression mutation TDP-43A315T on the formation of synaptic structures and the recruitment of GluR1 to the synaptic membrane and implicates hypoexcitability and attenuated synaptic function in the pathogenic decline of neuronal function in T DP-43-associated ALS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amyloid β precursor protein regulates neuron survival and maturation in the adult mouse brain.

TL;DR: It is concluded that APP reduces the survival of newborn neurons in the olfactory bulb and hippocampus, but that it does not influence all neuronal subtypes equally.
