Brain Ischemia Activates β- and γ-Secretase Cleavage of Amyloid Precursor Protein: Significance in Sporadic Alzheimer’s Disease
Amyloid precursor protein cleavage through β- and γ-secretases produces β-amyloid peptide, which is believed to be responsible for death of neurons and dementia in Alzheimer’s disease. Levels of β- and γ-secretase are increased in sensitive areas of the Alzheimer’s disease brain, but the mechanism o...
