Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most prominent neurodegenerative diseases. Results from animal and cellular models suggest that FAD-deficient forms of NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) may accelerate the aggregation of Alzheimer's amyloid-β peptide (Aβ1-42). Here, we examined in vitro whether NQO1 and its FAD-deficient P187S mutation (NQO1*2) directly interact with Aβ1-42 and modify its rate of...
