Dopamine neuronal loss contributes to memory and reward dysfunction in a model of Alzheimer’s disease
2017
Dopaminergic dysfunction occurs in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The authors show that in a mouse model of AD, loss of dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area, but not the substantia nigra, occurs at early pre-plaque stages, and may contribute to impaired cognition and reward processing.
