Zinc Overload Enhances APP Cleavage and Aβ Deposition in the Alzheimer Mouse Brain
BACKGROUND: Abnormal zinc homeostasis is involved in β-amyloid (Aβ) plaque formation and, therefore, the zinc load is a contributing factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the involvement of zinc in amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing and Aβ deposition has not been well established...
