Prion protein interacts with bace1 and differentially regulates its activity towards wild type and swedish mutant amyloid precursor protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In Alzheimer disease amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides derived from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) accumulate in the brain. Cleavage of APP by the β-secretase BACE1 is the rate-limiting step in the production of Aβ.

Identification and Validation of the lncRNA BACE1-AS as Immune-Related Influencing Factor in Tumorigenesis following Pan-Carcinoma Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2021
Background. The lncRNA BACE1-AS was identified as a plasma molecular marker in the early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease, but its role in tumors remains poorly defined. Methods.

Reduction in BACE1 decreases body weight, protects against diet-induced obesity and enhances insulin sensitivity in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Insulin resistance and impaired glucose homoeostasis are important indicators of Type 2 diabetes and are early risk factors of AD (Alzheimer's disease).

High Fat Diet Enhances β-Site Cleavage of Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) via Promoting β-Site APP Cleaving Enzyme 1/Adaptor Protein 2/Clathrin Complex Formation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Obesity and type 2 diabetes are risk factors of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We reported that a high fat diet (HFD) promotes amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleavage by β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) without increasing BACE1 levels in APP transgenic ...

The role and therapeutic targeting of α-, β- and γ-secretase in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Bace1-dependent amyloid processing regulates hypothalamic leptin sensitivity in obese mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We thank AstraZeneca for providing AZ-4217, Mark Smith (Imperial College, London) and Yuchio Yanagawa (Gunma University, Maebashi) for VGlut2-GFP and GAD67-GFP tissue, respectively.

Seizure protein 6 and its homolog seizure 6-like protein are physiological substrates of BACE1 in neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: The protease BACE1 (beta-site APP cleaving enzyme) is a major drug target in Alzheimer’s disease. However, BACE1 therapeutic inhibition may cause unwanted adverse effects due to its additional functions in the nervous system, such as in ...

pHluorin-BACE1-mCherry Acts as a Reporter for the Intracellular Distribution of Active BACE1 In Vitro and In Vivo

open access: yesCells, 2019
β-site APP-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) initiates amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleavage and β-amyloid (Aβ) production, a critical step in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Further Analyses of the Safety of Verubecestat in the Phase 3 EPOCH Trial of Mild-To-Moderate Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Verubecestat, a BACE1 inhibitor that reduces Aβ levels in the cerebrospinal fluid of humans, was not effective in a phase 3 trial (EPOCH) of mild-to-moderate AD and was associated with adverse events.
