Cellular Prion Protein Mediates Impairment of Synaptic Plasticity by Amyloid-β Oligomers

A pathological hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an accumulation of insoluble plaque containing the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) of 40–42 aa residues1. Prefibrillar, soluble oligomers of Aβ have been recognized to be early and key intermediates in AD-related synaptic dysfunction2–9. At nanomolar con...
