Effects of amyloid peptides on A-type K+ currents of Drosophila larval cholinergic neurons.

Accumulation of amyloid (Abeta) peptides has been suggested to be the primary event in Alzheimer's disease. In neurons, K+ channels regulate a number of processes, including setting the resting potential, keeping action potentials short, timing interspike intervals, synaptic plasticity, and cel...
