    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Alzheimer s disease; APP; Fe65; phosphorylation; RIP; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a slow progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by the accumulation of toxic amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide within the brain. APP plays an important role in AD, as the Aβ is formed when APP is sequentially cleaved by β- and γ-secretase. This is known as amyloidogenic processing of APP. READ MORE

  4. 2. The amyloid-β precursor protein (APP) and its adaptor protein Fe65 : Two key players in Alzheimer’s disease

    Author : Preeti Menon; Anna-Lena Ström; Thorsten Müller; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer s disease; APP; Fe65; Meprinβ; α-secretase; APP processing; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the abnormal accumulation and aggregation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides within the brain. Generation of Aβ occur when the amyloid-beta precursor protein (APP) is proteolytically processed by β- and then γ-secretase in the amyloidogenic pathway. READ MORE
