Metabolic Regulation of Brain Aβ by Neprilysin
Abstract
Amyloid β peptide (Aβ), the pathogenic agent of Alzheimer's disease (AD), is a physiological metabolite in the brain. We examined the role of neprilysin, a candidate Aβ-degrading peptidase, in the metabolism using neprilysin gene-disrupted mice. Neprilysin deficiency resulted in defects both in the degradation of exogenously administered Aβ and in the metabolic suppression of the endogenous Aβ levels in a gene dose-dependent manner. The regional levels of Aβ in the neprilysin-deficient mouse brain were in the distinct order of hippocampus, cortex, thalamus/striatum, and cerebellum, where hippocampus has the highest level and cerebellum the lowest, correlating with the vulnerability to Aβ deposition in brains of humans with AD. Our observations suggest that even partial down-regulation of neprilysin activity, which could be caused by aging, can contribute to AD development by promoting Aβ accumulation.

In the citing paper
“A is cleared from the brain via several clearance mechanisms, such as uptake and degradation by astro- cytes and microglia, 7,8 via A-degrading enzymes, such as neprilysin, endothelin-converting enzyme, and insulindegrading enzyme, 40 -42 and via transport by cerebral cells across the blood-brain barrier into the blood.”

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.
