F-spondin gene transfer improves memory performance and reduces amyloid-β levels in mice

Highlights ► F-spondin gene transfer improves memory and lowers Aβ in wild-type mice. ► F-spondin upregulates synaptophysin and reduces Aβ plaques in AD-transgenic mice. ► First direct data of the effects of F-spondin elevation on neuropathology/behavior. ► Relevant for the development of therapies...
