CADASIL: new cases and new questions.

abstract：:Recent studies have shown that Cerebrolysin can enhance synaptic function and ameliorate synaptodendritic alterations in animal models of neurodegeneration, suggesting a synaptotrophic effect. We hypothesize that Cerebrolysin might exert this effect, in part, by regulating the expression of amyloid precursor protein (...
