X11α haploinsufficiency enhances Aβ amyloid deposition in Alzheimer's disease transgenic mice

The neuronal adaptor protein X11α/mint-1/APBA-1 binds to the cytoplasmic domain of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) to modulate its trafficking and metabolism. We investigated the consequences of reducing X11α in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We crossed hAPPswe/PS-1ΔE9 transgeni...
