## Abstract The amyloid precursor protein (APP) is cleaved enzymatically by nonamyloidogenic and amyloidogenic pathways. Ξ±βSecretase (Ξ±βsecretase), cleaves APP within the Ξ²βamyloid (AΞ²) sequence, resulting in the release of a secreted fragment of APP (Ξ±APPs) and precluding AΞ² generation. In this st
