Pyk2 modulates hippocampal excitatory synapses and contributes to cognitive deficits in a Huntington’s disease model

Several kinases regulate spine morphology and plasticity. Here, the authors show that the tyrosine kinase Pyk2 regulates hippocampal plasticity and contributes to cognitive and hippocampal plasticity deficits in a mouse model of Huntington’s disease.
