Deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) in the brain is the main culprit of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Aβ is derived from sequential proteolytic cleavage of amyloid-β precursor protein (APP). Newly synthesized APP is transported from endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane via trans-Golgi network (TGN) after post-translational modification including N- and O-glycosylation. APP is internalized through clathrin-dependent...
