Abstract

The transcription factor nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) is widely expressed in the nervous system and increased NF-kappaB immunoreactivity has been observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains in the nuclei of neurons within the vicinity of diffuse beta-amyloid plaques. Beta-amyloid (Abeta) peptides are the main constituent of senile plaques and are known to stimulate NF-kappaB activity. In the present study, we investigated the effect of various NF-kappaB inhibitors on the production of Abeta1-40, Abeta1-42, secreted APP (sAPPbeta and sAPPalpha) and APP C-terminal fragments (APP-CTF) using CHO cells overexpressing the beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP). Our data show that NF-kappaB inhibitors decrease both Abeta1-40 and Abeta1-42 production. In addition, we show that some NF-kappaB inhibitors decrease sAPPbeta and APP-CTFbeta suggesting that they reduce the beta-secretase cleavage of APP. Altogether our data suggest that NF-kappaB inhibitors may be of therapeutic importance for the treatment of AD pathology not only by blocking inflammatory processes but also by directly inhibiting the production of Abeta peptides.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
