Maintenance of Synaptic Stability Requires Calcium-Independent Phospholipase A2 Activity by Julie Allyson, Xiaoning Bi, Michel Baudry, Guy Massicotte

“…In particular, the paper discusses the possibility that brain iPLA2γ deficiencies could destabilise normal synaptic operation and might contribute to the aetiology of some brain disorders. In this line, the paper presents new data indicating that iPLA2γ deficiencies accentuate AMPA receptor destabilization and tau phosphorylation, which suggests that this iPLA2 isoform should be considered as a potential target for the treatment of Tau-related disorders.…”
