Crocin inhibited amyloid-beta (Aβ) generation via promoting non-amyloidogenic APP processing and suppressed ER stress UPR signaling in N2a/APP cells
2021-09-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Crocin is a major active component of saffron ( Crocus sativus ) with many beneficial effects. More recently, crocin has been proposed for management of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here, we demonstrated for the first time that crocin reduced amyloid-beta (Aβ) generation through promoting α-cleavage of APP processing and inhibited ER stress by attenuating UPR s...
