Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder believed to be triggered by the accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ)-related peptides derived from the proteolytic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP). Research over the last two decades has shown that alterations in the levels...

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex and 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). The regions primarily affected in AD brains are the hippocampus and...

Insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate (IGF-II/M6P) receptor is a single trans-membrane glycoprotein that is widely but selectively distributed throughout the central nervous system (CNS). IGF-II/M6P receptor is involved in the trafficking of M6P-containing lysosomal enzymes from the...

Roles of the Insulin-like Growth Factor-II/Cation-independent Mannose 6-phosphate Receptor and Cathepsin D in Alzheimer’s Disease Pathology
DownloadSpring 2016
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of senile dementia affecting the elderly. A critical contributing factor to the neurodegeneration and development of AD pathology stems from the processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP), leading to the generation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides....

The Humanization of Rodent Beta-Amyloid: The Aggregative and Toxic Properties of Amino-Terminal Beta-Amyloid Mutations
DownloadSpring 2020
Human β-amyloid1-42 (hAβ1-42) peptides are known to self-aggregate into oligomers that contribute to the degeneration of neurons and development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. Unlike humans, rodents do not develop AD, possibly due to differences in three amino acids (R5G, Y10F and H13R)...
