The amyloidogenic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), primarily through the generation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptides, which aggregate to form toxic plaques in the brain. The regulation of amyloidogenic APP processing is a complex interplay of enzymes, proteins, and signaling pathways, all of which contribute to the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease. Understanding the intricate mechanisms and molecular players involved in APP processing substantially enhances our knowledge of Alzheimer's disease pathology and holds promise for the development of biomarkers of ongoing pathology at the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease. In this review, we aimed to investigate selected factors that regulate the amyloidogenic pathway of APP processing.
淀粉样前体蛋白(APP)的淀粉样生成过程在阿尔茨海默病(AD)的发病机制中起关键作用,主要是通过生成β淀粉样蛋白(Aβ)肽,这些肽聚集形成大脑中的有毒斑块。淀粉样生成性APP加工的调节是酶、蛋白质和信号通路之间复杂的相互作用,所有这些都促成了阿尔茨海默病的发展和进展。了解APP加工过程中涉及的复杂机制和分子参与者,极大地增强了我们对阿尔茨海默病病理学的认识,并有望在阿尔茨海默病的最早阶段开发出正在发生的病理学的生物标志物。在这篇综述中,我们旨在研究调节APP加工淀粉样生成途径的特定因素。
