Beta-secretase (BACE) and glycogen synthase kinase (GSK 3) are two enzymes thought to play a role in Alzheimer's disease. We extracted mRNA from 90 Alzheimer and 81 control brains. Levels of mRNA were quantified for BACE and GSK 3 with TaqMan real-time RT-PCR. We found no change in the Alzheimer's disease brains relative to controls for either the BACE or the GSK 3alpha mRNA levels.
β-分泌酶(BACE)和糖原合酶激酶(GSK 3)是被认为在阿尔茨海默病中起作用的两种酶。我们从90例阿尔茨海默病患者和81例对照者的大脑中提取了mRNA。使用TaqMan实时逆转录聚合酶链反应对BACE和GSK 3的mRNA水平进行定量。我们发现,与对照组相比,阿尔茨海默病患者大脑中的BACE或GSK 3α mRNA水平均未发生变化。
