An Anti-Parkinson’s Disease Drug via Targeting Adenosine A(2A) Receptor Enhances Amyloid-β Generation and γ-Secretase Activity

γ-secretase mediates the intramembranous proteolysis of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and determines the generation of Aβ which is associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here we identified that an anti-Parkinson’s disease drug, Istradefylline, could enhance Aβ generation in various cell lines a...
