Although the risk factor for harboring the apolipoprotein E4 (apoE4) allele in late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) is well known, the mechanism by which apoE4 contributes to AD pathogenesis has yet to be clarified. Preferential cleavage of the ApoE4 isoform relative to other polymorphic forms appears to be significant, as the resulting fragments are associated with hallmarks of AD. To examine the...
Bleomycin hydrolase (BH), a cysteine protease belonging to the papain superfamily, is one of the candidate β secretases. We performed immunohistochemical studies of Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains using an antibody to BH. Polyclonal antibody to BH immunostained neocortical neurons. The immunoreactivity was also found in senile plaques in AD. These results may suggest a role of BH in amyloid formation.
