Preferred endocytosis of amyloid precursor protein from cholesterol-enriched lipid raft microdomains
2020-06-26
Abstract excerpt
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) at the plasma membrane is internalized via endocytosis, and delivered to endosomes and lysosomes, where neurotoxic amyloid-β (Aβ) is produced via β-, γ-secretases. Hence, endocytosis plays a key role in the processing of APP and subsequent Aβ generation. β-, γ-secretases as well as APP are localized in cholesterol-enriched lipid raft microdomains. However, it is still unclear whethe...
