IL-17 triggers the onset of cognitive and synaptic deficits in early stages of ...
Cristiano Brigas, Maria Helena; Ribeiro, Miguel; Coelho, Joana E; Gomes, Rui; Gomez-Murcia, Victoria; Carvalho, Kevin; Faivre, EmilieNeuroinflammation in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related mouse models has been recognized for decades, but the contribution of the recently described meningeal immune population to AD pathogenesis remains to be addressed. Here, using the 3xTg-AD model, we report an accumulation of interleukin-17 (IL-17)-producing cells, mostly γδ T cells, in the brain and the meninges of female, but not male, mic...
Age-related shift in LTD is dependent on neuronal adenosine A2A receptors inter...
Temido Ferreira, Mariana; Ferreira, Diana; Batalha, Vânia; Marques-Morgado, Inês; Coelho, Joana E; Pereira, Pedro; Gomes, Rui; Pinto, AndreiaSynaptic dysfunction plays a central role in Alzheimer's disease (AD), since it drives the cognitive decline. An association between a polymorphism of the adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) encoding gene-ADORA2A, and hippocampal volume in AD patients was recently described. In this study, we explore the synaptic function of A2AR in age-related conditions. We report, for the first time, a significant overexpression o...
