Abstract
In this issue of Neuron, Suh et al. (2013) describe two rare ADAM10 prodomain mutations that cause late-onset Alzheimer's disease by impairing prodomain chaperone function, attenuating α-secretase activity, and reducing adult hippocampal neurogenesis. These results support both ADAM10 as a therapeutic target and the amyloid hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease.Entities:
