Abstract excerpt
Amyloid-β protein precursor (AβPP) metabolism and the accumulation of its derivative amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide in senile plaques have been considered key players in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the mechanisms underlying the generation and the deposition of Aβ are not clear but emphasis has been given in the role of AβPP protein interactions that regulate its processing and offer a means to...
