Familial Alzheimer’s Disease (FAD) caused by Presenilin-1 (PS1) mutations is characterized by early onset, cognitive impairment, and dementia. Impaired gamma secretase function favors production of longer beta-amyloid species in PS1 FAD.

The Features of Beta-Amyloid Phosphorylation in Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]
Accumulation of neurotoxic aggregates of beta-amyloid peptides (Aβ) is a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) increase Aβ aggregation and cytotoxicity, and the content of specific Aβ proteoforms is elevated in senile plaques of AD patients. The pathophysiological mechanisms of aggregate formation and

Amyloid-beta peptide and tau protein crosstalk in Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease that accounts for most of the 50-million dementia cases worldwide in 2018. A large amount of evidence supports the amyloid cascade hypothesis, which states that amyloid-beta accumulation triggers tau ...

Beta-amyloid imaging with florbetaben [PDF]
Florbetaben is a fluorine-18 (18F)-labeled stilbene derivative that was developed as a positron emission tomography (PET) tracer for routine clinical application to visualize β-amyloid plaques in the Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. The tracer successfully completed a global multicenter phase 0-III development program and was, as a consequence, recently

Lowering beta-amyloid levels rescues learning and memory in a Down syndrome mouse model. [PDF]
beta-amyloid levels are elevated in Down syndrome (DS) patients throughout life and are believed to cause Alzheimer's disease (AD) in adult members of this population.

Beta amyloid deposition and cognitive decline in Parkinson’s disease: a study of the PPMI cohort
The accumulation of beta amyloid in the brain has a complex and poorly understood impact on the progression of Parkinson’s disease pathology and much controversy remains regarding its role, specifically in cognitive decline symptoms.

The Roles of the Amyloid Beta Monomers in Physiological and Pathological Conditions
Amyloid beta peptide is an important biomarker in Alzheimer’s disease, with the amyloidogenic hypothesis as one of the central hypotheses trying to explain this type of dementia.
