| सारांश: | AD begins with memory and cognitive impairment and progresses to speech and movement skills which affects 35% of 80-year-olds adult. According to the amyloid cascade hypothesis, two proteins which are Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP), and Presenilin 1 (PS1) play a vital role in contributing to AD. Mutated APP and PS1 are shown to be responsible for the production of pathogenic amyloid-beta (Aβ42) peptide in AD patient, which then forms Aβ42 plaques and deposited in the brain. Presenilin 1 (PS1) is the primary component of γ-secretase which catalyses the
cleavage of APP (neuron development) especially at the beta region of APP in both amyloid pathways. |
