Although cognitive decline is a disease‐defining symptom of AD, sleep dysfunction, a common symptom often preceding cognitive decline, hasrecently gained more attention as a core AD symptom. Polysomnography and othersleep measures show sleep fragmentation with shortening of N3 sleep togetherwith excessive dayt… Show more
The N-truncation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides could lead to peptide sequences with the histidine residue at the second and third positions, creating His-2 and His-3 motifs, known as high-affinity...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
