Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) and synaptic density in early Alzheimer's disease (AD) using PET imaging techniques.
- Findings reveal a strong positive correlation between mGluR5 levels and synaptic density in the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex of Alzheimer’s patients, but less significant in cognitively normal individuals.
- The research concludes that loss of mGluR5 in the medial temporal lobe is linked to synaptic loss, suggesting its potential role in AD pathology.
