Emerging roles of N- and C-terminally truncated Aβ species in Alzheimer’s disease
2 Dec 2019
Abstract excerpt
Introduction: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by a cerebral accumulation and aggregation of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides, which mainly accumulate in the form of extracellular deposits. In addition to the well-described full-length peptides Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42, a variety of amino- and carboxy-terminally truncated Aβ variants have been identified in brain samples from sporadic and familial AD cases.Areas...
