Effect of Cholesterol Accumulation on the Metabolism of Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) in Cultured N2a Cells
DownloadFall 2015
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder believed to be triggered by the accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides derived from the proteolytic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP). Accumulated evidence has shown that alterations in the levels and/or subcellular...
