The causative role of amyloidosis in the cardiac complications of Alzheimer's disease: a comprehensive systematic review

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 4, Page 1646-1681, 15 February 2026.
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 ...

Noninvasive Assessment of β‐Secretase Activity Through Click Chemistry‐Mediated Enrichment of Neuronal Extracellular Vesicles to Detect Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most prevalent type of dementia, is characterized by a biological process that begins with the development of AD neuropathologic change (ADNPC) while individuals remain asymptomatic.

The amyloid-beta forming tripeptide cleavage mechanism of γ-secretase

open access: yeseLife, 2016
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 APP gamma-secretase restores Sonic Hedgehog signaling and neurogenesis in the Ts65Dn mouse model of Down syndrome

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2015
Neurogenesis impairment starting from early developmental stages is a key determinant of intellectual disability in Down syndrome (DS). Previous evidence provided a causal relationship between neurogenesis impairment and malfunctioning of the mitogenic ...

Inhibition of delta-secretase improves cognitive functions in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
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

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2008
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 ...

Independent Relationship between Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) Dimerization and γ-Secretase Processivity

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
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 ...
