The presenilin hypothesis of Alzheimer’s disease: Evidence for a loss-of-function pathogenic mechanism.
Open accessAbstract
Dominantly inherited mutations in the genes encoding presenilins (PS) and the amyloid precursor protein (APP) are the major causes of familial Alzheimer's disease (AD). The prevailing view of AD pathogenesis posits that accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides, particularly Aβ42, is the central event triggering neurodegeneration. Emerging evidence, however, suggests that loss of essential functions of PS could better explain dementia and neurodegeneration in AD. First, conditional inactivation of PS in the adult mouse brain causes progressive memory loss and neurodegeneration resembling AD, whereas mouse models based on overproduction of Aβ have failed to produce neurodegeneration. Second, whereas pathogenic PS mutations enhance Aβ42 production, they typically reduce Aβ40 generation and impair other PS-dependent activities. Third, γ-secretase inhibitors can enhance the production of Aβ42 while blocking other γ-secretase activities, thus mimicking the effects of PS mutations. Finally, PS mutations have been identified in frontotemporal dementia, which lacks amyloid pathology. Based on these and other observations, we propose that partial loss of PS function may underlie memory impairment and neurodegeneration in the pathogenesis of AD. We also speculate that Aβ42 may act primarily to antagonize PS-dependent functions, possibly by operating as an active site-directed inhibitor of γ-secretase.

Previous evidence indicates that presenilins influence synaptic function and intracellular calcium homeostasis.
“This broad and mixed response is consistent with the wider perturbation of interleukin, TGF-β, Wnt, glutamatergic, and presenilin signaling observed in our pathway analysis and with previous evidence that presenilins influence synaptic function and intracellular calcium homeostasis (Ho and Shen, 2011; Shen and Kelleher, 2007).”

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.
