Canonical Wnt Signaling Protects Hippocampal Neurons from Aβ Oligomers: Role of Non-Canonical Wnt-5a/Ca2+ in Mitochondrial Dynamics
Alzheimer´s disease (AD) is the most common type of age-related dementia. The disease is characterized by a progressive loss of cognitive abilities, severe neurodegeneration, synaptic loss and mitochondrial dysfunction. The Wnt signaling pathway participates in the development of the centra...
