The levels of APP isoforms with a KPI domain seem to be elevated in patients with AD (Menendez- Gonzalez et al. 2005) and a splicing shift in neurons from APP695 to KPI-containing APP isoforms, along with increased Abeta generation, is observed when the NMDA receptor is activated (Bordji et al. 2010) PubMed:22122372
Although alternative splicing of transcripts from the single APP gene results in several isoforms of the gene product, APP695, whose encoding cDNA lacks the gene sequence from exons 7 and 8, is preferentially expressed in neurons (Sandbrink et al. 1994) PubMed:22122372
