Scope and Contents

Contents

The deposition of the amyloid β-protein (Aβ) is a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aβ is a peptide consisting of 39–43 amino acids and is derived by β- and γ-secretase cleavage from the Aβ protein precursor (AβPP). An N-terminal-truncated form of Aβ can occur following α- and γ-secretase cleavage of AβPP. Fleecy amyloid is a recen...
