Mechanistic studies of the amyloid precursor protein intracellular domain (AICO) with implications for Alzheimer's disease
Proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by the successive actions of [beta]- and [gamma] secretases produces amyloid-B-peptide (AB), the principal constituent of plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). In AD research, therapeutic strategies have heavily focussed on modifying th...
