摘要
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by the deposition of beta-amyloid (Abeta) plaques derived from the amyloidogenic processing; of a transmembrane protein called beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP). In addition to the known genetic/sporadic factors that promote the formation of Abeta, the composition and structural dynamics of the membrane are also thought to play a significant role in the amyloidogenic processing of APP that promotes seeding of Abeta.jlr This minireview reinforces the roles played by membrane dynamics, membrane microdomains, and cholesterol homeostasis in relation to amyloidogenesis, and reviews current strategies of lowering cholesterol in treating AD.-N.B.
