Detection of a Novel Intraneuronal Pool of Insoluble Amyloid β Protein that Accumulates with Time in Culture
18 May 1998
Abstract excerpt
The amyloid-beta peptide (Abeta) is produced at several sites within cultured human NT2N neurons with Abeta1-42 specifically generated in the endoplasmic reticulum/intermediate compartment. Since Abeta is found as insoluble deposits in senile plaques of the AD brain, and the Abeta peptide can polymerize into insoluble fibrils in vitro, we examined the possibility that Abeta1-40, and particularly the more highly...
