GluN2A or GluN2B subunits of the NMDA receptor contribute to changes in neuronal excitability and impairments in LTP in the hippocampus of aging mice but do not mediate detrimental effects of oligomeric Aβ (1–42)
Studies in rodent models have revealed that oligomeric beta-amyloid protein [Aβ (1–42)] plays an important role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. Early elevations in hippocampal neuronal excitability caused by Aβ (1–42) have been proposed to be mediated via enhanced activation of GluN2B-co...
