  1. Neuronal ApoE upregulates MHC-I expression to drive selective neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Nature neuroscience 2021-05-06 Genetics

    Selective neurodegeneration is a critical causal factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, the mechanisms that lead some neurons to perish, whereas others remain resilient, are unknown.

  2. Amyloid beta peptide of Alzheimer's disease downregulates Bcl-2 and upregulates bax expression in human neurons

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience 1996-12-01 Tau biomarkers

    Neuronal apoptosis is a suspected cause of neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD).
