  1. Dysfunction of Somatostatin-Positive Interneurons Associated with Memory Deficits in an Alzheimer's Disease Model

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neuron 2016-09-15 Brain scans and imaging

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by cognitive decline and neuronal network dysfunction, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown.

  2. Apolipoprotein E4 causes age- and Tau-dependent impairment of GABAergic interneurons, leading to learning and memory deficits in mice

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience 2010-10-01 Genetics

    Apolipoprotein E4 (apoE4) is the major genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease.

  3. Deletion of tumor necrosis factor death receptor inhibits amyloid beta generation and prevents learning and memory deficits in Alzheimer's mice

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. The Journal of cell biology 2007-08-01 Risk genes beyond APOE

    The tumor necrosis factor type 1 death receptor (TNFR1) contributes to apoptosis.
