Degradation of tropoelastin and skin elastin by neprilysin
Neprilysin is also known as skin fibroblast-derived elastase, and its up-regulation during aging is associated with impairments of the elastic fiber network, loss of skin elasticity and wrinkle formation.

Effect of Neprilysin Inhibition on Alzheimer Disease Plasma Biomarkers: A Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial [PDF]
Amyloid-β (Aβ) accumulation is critical in Alzheimer disease (AD), and neprilysin is involved in physiologically clearing Aβ. Concerns exist regarding long-term use of sacubitril/valsartan, a neprilysin inhibitor and angiotensin receptor blocker used for

Autocrine regulation of human sperm motility by tachykinins
Background We examined the presence and function of tachykinins and the tachykinin-degrading enzymes neprilysin (NEP) and neprilysin-2 (NEP2) in human spermatozoa.

A new class of lysosome‐directed molecular glue degraders selectively enhance CAPRIN1–APP interactions, driving APP degradation and reducing amyloid‐β production in human neurons and Alzheimer's disease mouse models. This CAPRIN1‐dependent targeted protein degradation strategy reveals a previously unrecognized therapeutic approach for disrupting the ...

Hypoxia decreases lung neprilysin expression and increases pulmonary vascular leak
Although prior studies suggest that hypoxia may increase pulmonary vascular permeability, the mechanisms responsible for that effect remain uncertain. Neprilysin (neutral endopeptidase) is a cell surface metallopeptidase that degrades several vasoactive

Protective Effects of ACE/NEP Dual Inhibitor Omapatrilat for Indomethacin-induced Gastric Ulcer
Aim: The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays important roles in oxidative stress and various gastroenterological mechanisms. Omapatrilat, an RAAS-acting agent, inhibits both neprilysin neutral endopeptidase (NEP) and angiotensin converting ...
