  1. The study by Pigino et al. study elegantly highlights a possible mechanism by which Aβ oligomers can influence axonal transport. Though the validity of intracellular Aβ is debatable in the context of human AD pathology, Pigino et al. convincingly show that in a simple model-system of axonal transport, nanomolar levels of Aβ can influence transport; they also provide convincing evidence for the involvement of a specific signaling cascade in this process. The paper is a must-read!
