Amyloid precursor protein and amyloid precursor-like protein 2 in cancer
Oncotarget, 2016 Amyloid precursor protein (APP) and its family members amyloid precursor-like protein 1 (APLP1) and amyloid precursor-like protein 2 (APLP2) are type 1 transmembrane glycoproteins that are highly conserved across species.

The Amyloid Precursor Protein Controls PIKfyve Function. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 While the Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) plays a central role in Alzheimer's disease, its cellular function still remains largely unclear. It was our goal to establish APP function which will provide insights into APP's implication in Alzheimer's ...

Amyloid precursor protein and neural development [PDF]
Development, 2014 Interest in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) has increased in recent years due to its involvement in Alzheimer's disease. Since its molecular cloning, significant genetic and biochemical work has focused on the role of APP in the pathogenesis of this ...

Amyloid precursor protein processing and bioenergetics [PDF]
Brain Research Bulletin, 2017 The processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) to amyloid beta (Aβ) is of great interest to the Alzheimer's disease (AD) field. Decades of research define how APP is altered to form Aβ, and how Aβ generates oligomers, protofibrils, and fibrils. Numerous signaling pathways and changes in cell physiology are known to influence APP processing. Existing

Neuroprotective Secreted Amyloid Precursor Protein Acts by Disrupting Amyloid Precursor Protein Dimers [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2009 The amyloid precursor protein (APP) is implied both in cell growth and differentiation and in neurodegenerative processes in Alzheimer disease. Regulated proteolysis of APP generates biologically active fragments such as the neuroprotective secreted ectodomain sAPPalpha and the neurotoxic beta-amyloid peptide.

The role and therapeutic targeting of α-, β- and γ-secretase in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
, 2015 Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly and its prevalence is set to increase rapidly in coming decades. However, there are as yet no available drugs that can halt or even stabilize disease progression. One of the main

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

Oxysterol-Binding Protein-1 (OSBP1) Modulates Processing and Trafficking of the Amyloid Precursor Protein [PDF]
, 2008 BACKGROUND Evidence from biochemical, epidemiological and genetic findings indicates that cholesterol levels are linked to amyloid-β (Aβ) production and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Oxysterols, which are cholesterol-derived ligands of the liver X receptors
