Progressive cerebral deposition of -amyloid peptide either in blood vessels or around neurites is one of the most important features of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The -peptide, known as A or A4, is produced by proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Two APP processing pathways
The amyloid b precursor protein (AbPP) can exist as a membrane-bound glycoprotein which modulates neural cell adhesion. The adhesion of clones of the AtT20 mouse pituitary cell line, transfected with cDNA coding for the 695 (AbPP 695 ) and 751 (AbPP 751 ) amino acid forms of the protein, to individu
