Cellular Model of Alzheimer's Disease: Aβ1-42 Peptide Induces Amyloid Deposition and a Decrease in Topo Isomerase IIβ and Nurr1 Expression
23 Feb 2017
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: DNA topoisomerase IIβ (topo IIβ) plays a crucial role in neural differentiation and axonogenesis. Inhibition of topo IIβ activity in vitro and in vivo results in shorter axons and increased DNA damage. These molecular events also involve in Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, the role of topo IIβ in the pathogenesis of AD remains to be elucidated. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to investigate the role of topo...
