Abstract excerpt
Arguably the causative agent of Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyloid beta (Aβ)- peptides, are generated by sequential proteolysis of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by β- and γ-secretase activities. Alternatively, APP can be processed nonamyloidogenically by an α-secretase activity that cleaves within the Aβ-domain, precluding the formation of intact Aβ-peptides and liberating a neuroprotective fragment, sAPPα. T...
