Functional γ-secretase complex assembly in Golgi/trans-Golgi network: interactions among presenilin, nicastrin, Aph1, Pen-2, and γ-secretase substrates

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2003
γ-Secretase is a proteolytic complex whose substrates include Notch, β-amyloid precursor protein (APP), and several other type I transmembrane proteins. Presenilin (PS) and nicastrin are known components of this high-molecular-weight complex, and recent ...

Understanding the Intersection Between Hormonal Dynamics and Brain Plasticity in Alzheimer's Disease: A Narrative Review for Implementing New Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Alzheimer's disease (AD), a chronic neurodegenerative disorder, is portrayed by neurocognitive decline in the structure and function of the human brain. Various factors are implicated in the pathogenesis to neuroplasticity alteration in the brain of an individual afflicted with AD.

Autophagy and Cellular Senescence in Alzheimer's Disease: Key Drivers of Neurodegeneration

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
Impaired autophagy in Alzheimer's disease leads to accumulation of amyloid‐β and tau aggregates, while senescent brain cells secrete pro‐inflammatory SASP factors. The interplay between defective clearance and chronic inflammation accelerates neuronal dysfunction and highlights autophagy enhancers and senolytics as promising therapeutic strategies ...

Destruxin E Decreases Beta-Amyloid Generation by Reducing Colocalization of Beta-Amyloid-Cleaving Enzyme 1 and Beta-Amyloid Protein Precursor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Alzheimer-disease-associated beta-amyloid (A beta) is produced by sequential endoproteolysis of beta-amyloid protein precursor (beta APP): the extracellular portion is shed by cleavage in the juxtamembrane region by beta-amyloid-cleaving enzyme (BACE ...

Pathological activity of familial Alzheimer’s disease-associated mutant presenilin can be executed by six different γ-secretase complexes

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2007
γ-Secretase is a protease complex, which catalyzes the final of two subsequent cleavages of the β-amyloid precursor protein (APP) to release the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) implicated in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis.
