Alzheimers disease (AD) is the most frequent cause of late-life dementia, with pathological characteristics of extracellular aggregation of amyloid b-peptides (Abs) with 39 ± 43 amino acids, which are proteolytically derived from the transmembrane amyloid precursor protein (APP). [1] Recent studies
## Previous work by Cellerino et al. has shown that chronic absence of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) resulted in hypomyelination of the optic nerve. Since myelination is influenced by neuronal activity, it is possible that a deficiency in BDNF during early development could alter the fi
Prior studies using rat primary hippocampal cultures indicated induction of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in response to -amyloid (A). Hence, it was of interest to determine whether MMP activity in a human cell line is influenced by A. A, but not interleukin-1 (IL-1) or lipopolysaccharide (
