Flavonoids as Modulators of Amyloid Precursor Protein Metabolism and Alzheimer Disease Pathology
Alzheimer disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder pathologically characterized by deposition of ß-amyloid (Aß) peptides as plaques in the brain. Central to this AD pathology is mismetabolism of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Recent studies suggest that flavonoids, a class of s...
