A soy protein Lunasin can ameliorate amyloid-beta 42 mediated neurodegeneration in Drosophila eye
4 Sept 2018
Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer's disease (AD), a fatal progressive neurodegenerative disorder, also results from accumulation of amyloid-beta 42 (Aβ42) plaques. These Aβ42 plaques trigger oxidative stress, abnormal signaling, which results in neuronal death by unknown mechanism(s). We misexpress high levels of human Aβ42 in the differentiating retinal neurons of the Drosophila eye, which results in the Alzheimer's like...
