Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by loss of specific cell populations within selective subregions of the hippocampus. Excitotoxicity, mediated via ionotropic glutamate receptors, may play a crucial role in this selective neuronal vulnerability. We investigated whether alterations in NMDA receptor subunits occurred during AD progression. Employing biochemical and in situ hybridization techniques in subjects with a broad range of AD pathology, protein levels, and mRNA expression of NR1/2A/2B subunits were assayed. With increasing AD neuropathology, protein levels and mRNA expression for NR1/2B subunits were significantly reduced, while the NR2A subunit mRNA expression and protein levels were unchanged. Cellular analysis of neuronal mRNA expression revealed a significant increase in the NR2A subunit in subjects with moderate neurofibrillary tangle neuropathology. This investigation supports the hypothesis that alterations occur in the expression of specific NMDA receptor subunits with increasing AD pathologic severity, which is hypothesized to contribute to the vulnerability of these neurons.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
