Elsevier Science / Neuroscion, Orlando October 31 - November 1, 2002 General information This symposium assembles scientists with expertise in the pathogenesis of AD with others studying the molecular and cellular basis for synaptic development and function. The objectives are to discuss how the pathological mechanisms in Alzheimer’s disease cause specific synaptic changes and how this synaptic dysfunction yields the cognitive decline. Enlightened by recent genetic studies of AD, this discussion will include possible therapeutic strategies. Conference Sessions: Cell survival and neurodegeneration Neurotransmitter vesicles and receptors Modulation of synaptic structure and function RNAs and proteins in dendrites and spines Expression of synapse-related messages and proteins in AD Synapse number synaptotoxicity in AD Signaling cascades in AD |
