Apolipoprotein-E transforms intracellular Amyloid-β oligomers to a more toxic state

2023-09-03

Abstract excerpt

It is poorly understood why ApoE variants are major genetic risk factors in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), which is associated with the aggregation of amyloid beta (Aβ). Here we directly image specific changes in small Aβ oligomers in rat brain cells that correlate with the cellular ApoE content. An inhibitor of Aβ-ApoE interaction suppresses this change and concomitantly reduces Aβ toxicity in a dose-dependent manner....
