Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of the bidirectional causative link between cerebral amyloid‐beta (Aβ) angiopathy and cardiovascular disease in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Common cardiovascular risk factors like microvascular thrombosis, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, hypertension and atherosclerosis lead to cerebral hypoperfusion and ...

The amyloid-beta forming tripeptide cleavage mechanism of γ-secretase
γ-secretase is responsible for the proteolysis of amyloid precursor protein (APP) into short, aggregation-prone amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptides, which are centrally implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Inhibition of delta-secretase improves cognitive functions in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease
Delta-secretases are associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) as they cleave both amyloid precursor protein and tau. Here the authors develop a series of orally bioactive small molecule delta-secretase inhibitors and report its therapeutic effects in ...

Localization and regional distribution of p23/TMP21 in the brain
Sequential processing of amyloid precursor protein by β- and γ-secretases generates Alzheimer's disease (AD)-associated β-amyloid peptides. Recently it was reported that the transmembrane protein p23/TMP21 associates with γ-secretase, and negatively ...

Altered production of β-amyloid (Aβ) from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is closely associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). APP has a number of homo- and hetero-dimerizing domains, and studies have suggested that dimerization of β-secretase derived APP carboxyl terminal fragment (CTFβ, C99) impairs processive cleavage by γ-secretase increasing ...
