ZnT3 mRNA levels are reduced in Alzheimer's disease post-mortem brain
BACKGROUND: ZnT3 is a membrane Zn(2+ )transporter that is responsible for concentrating Zn(2+ )into neuronal presynaptic vesicles. Zn(2+ )homeostasis in the brain is relevant to Alzheimer's disease (AD) because Zn(2+ )released during neurotransmission may bind to Aβ peptides, accelerating the a...
