The APOE ɛ 4 allele has a key role in the physiopathogenesis of diffuse cerebral processes and neuronal plasticity ... to loss of stimulation by excitatory neurotransmitters.
Our group focuses on mechanisms of neuronal development and plasticity. Based on neurite outgrowth assays, we have previously isolated, cloned, and produced as recombinant proteins two ligands of ...
