## Abstract The reasons underlying the high iron content found in the substantia nigra (SN) of Parkinson's disease (PD) are largely unknown. We suppose, based on our previous studies, that the newly discovered iron transporter divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) might be involved in this SN iron ac
## Abstract One of the pathologic hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease is the excessive deposition of β‐amyloid peptides (Aβ) in senile plaques. Aβ is generated when β‐amyloid precursor protein (APP) is cleaved sequentially by β‐secretase, identified as β‐site APP‐cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1), and γ‐secre
## Abstract The amyloid precursor protein (APP) is cleaved enzymatically by nonamyloidogenic and amyloidogenic pathways. α‐Secretase (α‐secretase), cleaves APP within the β‐amyloid (Aβ) sequence, resulting in the release of a secreted fragment of APP (αAPPs) and precluding Aβ generation. In this st
