Impact of the diverse cardiotonic steroids on beta-amyloid precursor protein level [PDF]

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Endogenous cardiotonic steroids (CTS), which are specific ligands of Na,K-ATPase, have been detected not only in blood plasma but also in cerebrospinal fluid and in the brain tissue.

The orphan drug dichloroacetate reduces amyloid beta-peptide production whilst promoting non-amyloidogenic proteolysis of the amyloid precursor protein.

PLoS ONE, 2022
The amyloid cascade hypothesis proposes that excessive accumulation of amyloid beta-peptides is the initiating event in Alzheimer's disease. These neurotoxic peptides are generated from the amyloid precursor protein via sequential cleavage by β- and γ ...

Amyloidosis in Alzheimer’s Disease: Pathogeny, Etiology, and Related Therapeutic Directions

Molecules, 2022
The amyloid hypothesis of Alzheimer’s disease has long been the predominant theory, suggesting that Alzheimer’s disease is caused by the accumulation of amyloid beta protein (Aβ) in the brain, leading to neuronal toxicity in the central nervous system ...

Casuarictin: A new herbal drug molecule for Alzheimer's disease as inhibitor of presenilin stabilization factor like protein

Heliyon, 2020
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. In this disease neurodegeneration occurs due to deposition of aggregated amyloid-beta plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (hyperphosphorylated tau proteins).

Adenosine triphosphate binding cassette subfamily C member 1 (ABCC1) overexpression reduces APP processing and increases alpha- versus beta-secretase activity, in vitro

Biology Open, 2021
The organic anion transporter Adenosine triphosphate binding cassette subfamily C member 1 (ABCC1), also known as MRP1, has been demonstrated in murine models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) to export amyloid beta (Abeta) from the endothelial cells of the ...

Ectodomain shedding of the amyloid precursor protein: Cellular control mechanisms and novel modifiers [PDF]

, 2006
Proteolytic cleavage in the ectodomain of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a key regulatory step in the generation of the Alzheimer's disease amyloid-beta (A beta) pepticle and occurs through two different protease activities termed alpha- and beta-

Amyloid-β acts as a regulator of neurotransmitter release disrupting the interaction between synaptophysin and VAMP2. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: It is becoming increasingly evident that deficits in the cortex and hippocampus at early stages of dementia in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are associated with synaptic damage caused by oligomers of the toxic amyloid-β peptide (Aβ42).

Altered expression of Alzheimer's disease-related proteins in male hypogonadal mice [PDF]

, 2012
Age-related depletion of estrogens and androgens is associated with an increase in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain pathology and diminished cognitive function. Here we investigated AD-associated molecular and cellular changes in brains of aged hypogonadal
