Thyroid Hormone Negatively Regulates the Transcriptional Activity of the β-Amyloid Precursor Protein Gene
1 Nov 1998
Abstract excerpt
The expression of the beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP), which plays a key role in the development of Alzheimer's disease, is regulated by a variety of cellular mediators in a cell-dependent manner. In the present study, we present evidence that thyroid hormones negatively regulate the expression of the APP gene in neuroblastoma cells. Transient transfection studies using plasmids that contain progressive...
