STEP (STriatal-Enriched protein tyrosine Phosphatase)(also known as PTPN5) is a brain-specific phosphatase that plays a significant role in synaptic plasticity and cognitive function. It is particularly relevant in the context of Alzheimer's disease (AD) due to its dysregulation in this neurodegenerative condition.
- upregulated/hperactive in AD Brains.
- leads to disruption i learning and memory.
- Inhibition of STEP has shown to improve cognition and synaptic function in AD models
- Enhancing SIRT1 downregulated STEP indirectly.
