Inhibition of γ-secretase worsens memory deficits in a genetically congruous mouse model of Danish dementia
BACKGROUND: A mutation in the BRI2/ITM2b gene causes familial Danish dementia (FDD). BRI2 is an inhibitor of amyloid-β precursor protein (APP) processing, which is genetically linked to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis. The FDD mutation leads to a loss of BRI2 protein and to increased APP proce...
