Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease worldwide. AD is pathologically characterized by the deposition of senile plaques in the brain, which are composed of an amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) that is produced through the multistep cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by γ-secretase. γ-Secretase is a membrane protein complex, which includes its catalytic subunit presenilin 1 (PS1)....
