- W2091788144 abstract "After heart disease, cancer and stroke, Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the fourth major cause of death in the developed countries. Due to demographic changes, this situation will further worsen in the future. With the use of molecular biology techniques, important progress has recently been made in the understanding of the molecular changes leading to some forms of this disabling illness. The first step was the partial sequencing of the amyloid protein accumulating in the senile plaques and vascular deposits characteristic of AD. This allowed the cloning of a cDNA coding for a long amyloid precursor protein (APP). During the last few years, independent reports have described the presence of several reproducible points mutations in specific codons of APP in early onset familial Alzheimer patients. These mutations are responsible for an abnormal processing of APP, leading to the formation of pathological β/A4 amyloid deposits. β/A4 has been shown to possess neurotrophic properties in embryonic neurones and to be a potent neurotoxic agent in differentiated hippocampal neurones. More recently, modifications of intracellular calcium, activation of kinases, free radical generation and anomalies in potassium channels have been described as possible mechanisms of β/A4 toxicity. Some forms of Apo-E lipoprotein may be an additional risk factor. Hence, it now seems possible to elaborate a coherent theory to explain the cascade of events leading to the development of AD. Genetically induced point mutations or environmental factors may produce a modification of the APP metabolism and processing. As a consequence, abnormal deposits of β/A4 are formed. They may exert direct or indirect neurotoxic actions. A degeneration of cholinergic, catecholaminergic and other neurones follows, leading to the well known cognitive and behavioural changes of AD." @default.
