A number of mutations, identified in the gene encoding the beta-amyloid precursor protein (betaAPP), have been linked to early-onset Familial Alzheimers Disease.
betaAPP is cleaved sequentially by the proteolytic enzymes beta-secretase and γ-secretase to produce beta-amyloid (Abeta) peptides with the Abeta1-42(43) and the Abeta1-40 forms being the most prevalent.
Secreted Abeta peptides can bind to scavenger receptors and the receptor for advanced glycation endproducts.
Abeta peptides are degraded either via a reuptake mechanism followed by endosomal degradation or by an extracellular insulin-degrading enzyme.
Extracellular accumulation of Abeta leads to formation of aggregates, fibrils, and eventually amyloid deposits called neuritic plaques, a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease.
beta-amyloid antibodies and peptides have been developed as tools for elucidating the biology of Alzheimers disease.
