Accelerated Amyloid Beta Pathogenesis by Bacterial Amyloid FapC [PDF]
The gut–brain axis has attracted increasing attention in recent years, fueled by accumulating symptomatic, physiological, and pathological findings. In this study, the aggregation and toxicity of amyloid beta (Aβ), the pathogenic peptide associated with ...

Amyloid-beta peptide and tau protein crosstalk in Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease that accounts for most of the 50-million dementia cases worldwide in 2018. A large amount of evidence supports the amyloid cascade hypothesis, which states that amyloid-beta accumulation triggers tau ...

Plasma pyroglutamate‐modified amyloid beta differentiates amyloid pathology
Introduction Pyroglutamate‐modified amyloid β (AβpE3) could be a biomarker for Aβ plaque pathology in the brain. An ultra‐high‐sensitive assay is needed for detecting AβpE3‐40.

The amyloid-beta wave hypothesis of Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex and multifactorial disorder that affects all races and genders. Genetic traits influenced by lifestyle and environment lead to a tremendous amount of heterogeneity in Alzheimer’s disease onset and severity ...

Destruxin E Decreases Beta-Amyloid Generation by Reducing Colocalization of Beta-Amyloid-Cleaving Enzyme 1 and Beta-Amyloid Protein Precursor [PDF]
Alzheimer-disease-associated beta-amyloid (A beta) is produced by sequential endoproteolysis of beta-amyloid protein precursor (beta APP): the extracellular portion is shed by cleavage in the juxtamembrane region by beta-amyloid-cleaving enzyme (BACE ...

Human microglial cells synthesize albumin in brain [PDF]
Albumin has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease since it can bind to and transport amyloid beta, the causative agent; albumin is also a potent inhibitor of amyloid beta polymerization.

Familial Alzheimer’s Disease (FAD) caused by Presenilin-1 (PS1) mutations is characterized by early onset, cognitive impairment, and dementia. Impaired gamma secretase function favors production of longer beta-amyloid species in PS1 FAD.

Lowering beta-amyloid levels rescues learning and memory in a Down syndrome mouse model. [PDF]
beta-amyloid levels are elevated in Down syndrome (DS) patients throughout life and are believed to cause Alzheimer's disease (AD) in adult members of this population.

Beta amyloid deposition and cognitive decline in Parkinson’s disease: a study of the PPMI cohort
The accumulation of beta amyloid in the brain has a complex and poorly understood impact on the progression of Parkinson’s disease pathology and much controversy remains regarding its role, specifically in cognitive decline symptoms.
