  1. Exendin-4 Prevents Memory Loss and Neuronal Death in Rats with Sporadic Alzheimer-Like Disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Molecular neurobiology 2023-11-03 Drug development

    This study investigated the neuroprotective effects of exendin-4 (EXE-4), an analog of the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) on memory and on the neuronal populations that constitute the hippocampus of rats submitted to a sporadic dementia of Alzheimer's type (SDAT).

  2. Site-specific regulation of Alzheimer-like tau phosphorylation in living neurons

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neuroscience 1996-05-01 Drug development

    The microtubule-associated protein tau is more highly phosphorylated at certain residues in developing brain and in Alzheimer's disease paired helical filaments than in adult brain.
