Moreover, some nAChRs have been implicated in processes such as the structuring and maintenance of neurites and synapses [18–20] and even in modulation of neuronal viability/death [21–24]. PubMed:21787755
It has acute effects on the synapse, serving as an activity-dependent regulator of synaptic plas- ticity and participating in rapid synaptic transmission [150,151,156–159], in the maturation of GABAergic signaling and in the stabilization of newly formed synapses [151,160–163]. PubMed:22040696
For example, Bgt-sensitive a7-nAChRs have been implicated in processes such as vicinal control of neurotransmitter release [7,14], development and maintenance of neurites and synapses [18–20], long-term potentiation [95,96], seizures [97], and neuronal viability/death [21–24]. These intriguing findings underscore the need for further characterization of functional a7-nAChRs. PubMed:21787755
When tau oligomers, rather than tau monomers or fibrils, are injected into the brain of wild-type mice, cognitive, synaptic, and mitochondrial abnormalities follow (Lasagna- Reeves et al., 2011; Castillo-Carranza et al., 2014b) PubMed:28420982
Aberrant phosphorylation and aggregation of Tau have been linked to axonal transport problems, synaptic malfunction and degeneration (6). PubMed:22611162
