The deposition of aggregated amyloid β-protein (Aβ) in the human brain is a major lesion in Alzheimer' disease (AD). The process of Aβ fibril formation is associated with a cascade of neuropathogenic events that induces brain neurodegeneration leading to the cognitive and behavioral decline characteristic of AD. Although a detailed knowledge of Aβ assembly is crucial for the development of new therapeutic...
A small number (1-5%) of Alzheimer's disease (AD) cases associated with the early-onset form of the disease (EOAD) appears to be transmitted as a pure genetic, autosomal dominant trait. To date, three genes responsible for familial EOAD have been identified in the human genome: amyloid precursor protein (APP), presenilin 1 (PS1), and presenilin 2 (PS2). Mutations in these genes account for a significant...
