Opposite changes in APP processing and human Aβ levels in rats carrying either a protective or a pathogenic APP mutation
Cleavage of APP by BACE1/β-secretase initiates the amyloidogenic cascade leading to Amyloid-β (Aβ) production. α-Secretase initiates the non-amyloidogenic pathway preventing Aβ production. Several APP mutations cause familial Alzheimer’s disease (AD), while the Icelandic APP mutation near the BACE1-...
