Differential vulnerability of hippocampal CA3-CA1 synapses to Aβ

Abstract Amyloid-beta (Aβ) and tau protein are both involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. Aβ produces synaptic deficits in wild-type mice that are not seen in Mapt −/− mice, suggesting that tau protein is required for these effects of Aβ. However, whether some synapses are more select...
