Up-regulation of Glycohydrolases in Alzheimer's Disease Fibroblasts Correlates with Ras Activation
26 Sept 2003
Abstract excerpt
The lysosomal system is up-regulated in the brain of patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD), as demonstrated by previous experiments carried out in postmortem samples of brain patients. In this paper we provide evidence that an up-regulation of lysosomal glycohydrolases (alpha-D-mannosidase, beta-D-hexosaminidase, and beta-D-galactosidase) takes place in skin fibroblasts from AD patients affected either by...
