Hippocampal CA3-CA1 synaptic rescue via DHHC2-mediated PSD95 palmitoylation stabilization
h-var-9c0368bb70
## Mechanistic Overview
The hypothesis proposes that stabilizing hippocampal CA3-CA1 synaptic function through DHHC2-mediated PSD95 palmitoylation can rescue synaptic transmission in Alzheimer's disease (AD), with BDNF signaling as a key downstream effector of this structural stabilization.
## Molecular Mechanism and Rationale
DHHC2 palmitoyltransferase catalyzes reversible palmitoylation of PS
