Alzheimer’s and Danish dementia peptides induce cataract and perturb retinal architecture in rats
Familial Danish dementias (FDDs) are autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorders that are associated with visual defects. In some aspects, FDD is similar to Alzheimer’s disease (AD)– the amyloid deposits in FDD and AD are made of short peptides: amyloid β (Aβ) in AD and ADan in FDD. Previously, w...
