For retrieval of memories a minimum number of synapses representing parts of the information is necessary. The dementia Morbus Alzheimer is characterized by progressive dysfunction and loss of synapses. Therefore, the central issue in understanding the genesis of the disease is the search for the underlying reasons of both. As the APP protein plays a central role in the pathogenesis of AD, the goal of this work was to elucidate the contributions of APP in synapse function in the hippocampus, the brain region that is predominantly affected by Alzheimer´s Disease. Investigation of gene-targeted mice that expressed different truncations of APP, partly on an APLP2 knock-out background, allowed me to study the functions of the three major domain...
