g(HGNC:CHRNA7) association path(MESH:"Sensory Gating")
In particular, the association of the alpha7 nAChR gene with a sensory gating deficit that is similar to attention deficits in patients with schizophrenia (157), and the degree of alpha4beta2 nAChR loss and altered alpha7 expresson correlate well with the magnitude of progressive cognitive decline in mild-to-moderate AD patients (46).
