We examined synaptic function in the hippocampus of aged mice deficient for the Parkinson's disease-linked protein, parkin. Surprisingly, heterozygous but not homozygous parkin-deficient mice exhibited impairments in basal excitatory synapt...
Synonymous polymorphisms at splicing regulatory sites are associated with CpGs in neurodegenerative disease-related genes [0.03%]

The hallmark clinical symptom of early Alzheimer's disease (AD) is episodic memory impairment. Recent functional imaging studies suggest that memory function is subserved by a set of distributed networks, which include both the medial tempo...
