BACE1 Physiological Functions May Limit Its Use as Therapeutic Target for Alzheimer's Disease

Barão, Soraia, Moechars, Diederik, Lichtenthaler, Stefan F., De Strooper, Bart·2016·Trends in Neurosciences

Abstract

The protease β-site amyloid precursor protein (APP)-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) is required for the production of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide, which is central to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Chronic inhibition of this protease may temper amyloid production and cure or prevent AD. However, while BACE1 inhibitors are being pushed forward as drug candidates, a remarkable gap in knowledge on the physiological functions of BACE1 and its close homolog BACE2 becomes apparent. Here we discuss the major discoveries of the past 3 years concerning BACE1 biology and to what extent these could limit the use of BACE1 inhibitors in the clinic.

  • Several phenotypic changes have been described in BACE1-/- mice, such as epileptic seizures, schizophrenic symptoms, increased mortality and altered insulin metabolism.

    “Moreover, several phenotypic changes were described in BACE1-/- mice, such as epileptic seizures, schizophrenic symptoms, increased mortality and altered insulin metabolism, but most of the BACE1 substrates contributing to these phenotypes still need to be determined [13].”
  • BACE1 is a major drug target in AD, but has additional substrates and thus contributes to various biological processes, which may limit its therapeutic potential.

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.
