Protease nexin-2 (PN-2) is a protease inhibitor that is synthesized and secreted by a variety of extravascular cells including human fibroblasts. It forms sodium dodecyl sulfate-stable complexes with trypsin, the epidermal growth factor binding protein ...

BACE1 activity impairs neuronal glucose oxidation:rescue by beta-hydroxybutyrate and lipoic acid [PDF]
Glucose hypometabolism and impaired mitochondrial function in neurons have been suggested to play early and perhaps causative roles in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Activity of the aspartic acid protease, beta-site amyloid precursor protein (APP)

Intracellular pH regulates amyloid precursor protein intracellular domain accumulation
The amyloid precursor protein (APP) metabolism is central to pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Parenchymal amyloid deposits, a neuropathological hallmark of AD, are composed of amyloid-beta peptides (Abeta).

Axonal amyloid precursor protein and its fragments undergo somatodendritic endocytosis and processing. [PDF]
Deposition of potentially neurotoxic Aβ fragments derived from amyloid precursor protein (APP) at synapses may be a key contributor to Alzheimer's disease.

Protease nexin-2/amyloid β-protein precursor limits cerebral thrombosis [PDF]
The amyloid β-protein precursor (AβPP) is best known as the parent molecule to the amyloid β-peptide that accumulates in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease. Secreted isoforms of AβPP that contain the Kunitz proteinase inhibitor domain are analogous to the previously identified cell-secreted proteinase inhibitor known as ...

The amyloid-beta precursor protein is a transmembrane protein expressed in many tissues and highly concentrated in the brain. The protein is of significant interest due to its involvement in the generation of amyloidogenic β-amyloid peptides, prone to ...

BackgroundThe linkages between neuroinflammation and Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis are well established. What is not, however, is how specific immune pathways and proteins affect the disease.
