Retrograde axonal transport of BDNF and proNGF diminishes with age in basal forebrain cholinergic neurons
Abstract
Basal forebrain cholinergic neurons (BFCNs) are critical for learning and memory and degenerate early in Alzheimer's disease (AD). BFCNs depend for their survival and function on nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which are retrogradely transported from BFCN targets. Age is the greatest risk factor for developing AD, yet the influence of age on BFCN axonal transport is poorly understood. To model aging,...
