Abstract excerpt
AIM: To investigate the pathogenesis of Abeta42 yielding and new drug targets as well as the possibility of RNA interference (RNAi) technique for treatment of Alzheimer disease (AD). METHODS: Human AD presenilin 1 (PS1) cDNA sequence was obtained from NCBI website. The three sites of RNAi action and one missense control site were selected in PS1 cDNA through online design of Ambion company. To confirm specificity...
