Binding of F-spondin to amyloid- precursor protein: A candidate amyloid- precursor protein ligand that modulates amyloid- precursor protein cleavage
Amyloidprecursor protein (APP), a type I membrane protein, is physiologically processed by or -secretases that cleave APP N-terminal to the transmembrane region. Extracellular -cleavage of APP generates a large secreted N-terminal fragment, and a smaller cellular C-terminal fragment. Subsequent -secretase cleavage in the transmembrane region of the C-terminal fragment induces secretion of small...
متن کاملCellular prion protein regulates beta-secretase cleavage of the Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein.
Proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by beta-secretase, beta-site APP cleaving enzyme (BACE1), is the initial step in the production of the amyloid beta (Abeta) peptide, which is involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. The normal cellular function of the prion protein (PrP(C)), the causative agent of the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies such as Cre...
متن کاملProtein phosphorylation regulates secretion of Alzheimer beta/A4 amyloid precursor protein.
Extracellular deposition of the beta/A4 amyloid peptide is a characteristic feature of the brain in patients with Alzheimer disease. beta/A4 amyloid is derived from the amyloid precursor protein (APP), an integral membrane protein that exists as three major isoforms (APP695, APP751, and APP770). Secreted forms of APP found in blood plasma and cerebrospinal fluid arise by proteolytic cleavage of...
متن کاملCaveolin-3 upregulation activates beta-secretase-mediated cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein in Alzheimer's disease.
Here, we investigate the involvement of caveolins in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We show dramatic upregulation of caveolin-3 immunoreactivity in astroglial cells surrounding senile plaques in brain tissue sections from authentic AD patients and an established transgenic mouse model of AD. In addition, we find that caveolin-3 physically interacts and biochemically colocalize...
متن کاملIncreased expression of beta-amyloid precursor protein during neuronal differentiation is not accompanied by secretory cleavage.
Despite increasing evidence for a pathogenetic role for the beta-amyloid precursor protein (beta APP) in Alzheimer disease, the physiological function of the protein remains unclear. The expression of the neural-specific isoform containing 695 amino acids, beta APP695, is consistent with a role for the protein in neuronal development. In this study, we analyzed the expression of beta APP during...
