Regional contributions of D-serine to Alzheimer’s disease pathology in male AppNL–G–F/NL–G–F mice by Xiance Ni, Xiance Ni, Ran Inoue, Ran Inoue, Yi Wu, Yi Wu, Tomoyuki Yoshida, Tomoyuki Yoshida, Keisuke Yaku, Takashi Nakagawa, Takashi Nakagawa, Takashi Saito, Takashi Saito, Takaomi C. Saido, Keizo Takao, Keizo Takao, Keizo Takao, Hisashi Mori, Hisashi Mori, Hisashi Mori

“…In the mammalian brain, it is produced by serine racemase (SRR) from L-serine, suggesting that dysregulation of L-serine, D-serine, or SRR may contribute to AD pathogenesis.Objective and methodsWe examined the contributions of D-serine to AD pathology in the AppNL–G–F/NL–G–F gene knock-in (APPKI) mouse model of AD. We first examined brain SRR expression levels and neuropathology in APPKI mice and then assessed the effects of long-term D-serine supplementation in drinking water on neurodegeneration. …”
