Alzheimer’s Disease-associated peptide Aβ42 mobilises ER Ca2+ via InsP3R-dependent and -independent mechanisms

Dysregulation of Ca2+ homeostasis is considered to contribute to the toxic action of the Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) associated Amyloid-β-peptide (Aβ). Ca2+ fluxes across the plasma membrane and release from intracellular stores have both been reported to underlie the Ca2+ fluxes induced by Aβ42. Here,...
