Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the buildup of the highly toxic peptide amyloid-beta (Aβ). Previously, we demonstrated that Aβ is generated from the cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) after internalization to lysosomes via macropinocytosis. However, the regulation of APP micropinocytosis has remained uncharacterized. Evidence suggests that APP may func...
