Amyloid β precursor protein (APP) is a type 1 transmembrane protein. The gene is located on human chromosome 21q21.3.
특이성
Recognizes all types of amyloid oligomers. Appears to recognize a peptide backbone epitope that is common to amyloid oligomers, but is not found in native proteins, amyloidogenic monomer or mature amyloid fibrils.
면역원
Synthetic molecular mimic of soluble oligomers.
애플리케이션
Anti-APP antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting.
생화학적/생리학적 작용
Amyloid β precursor protein (APP) regulates cell signaling. Mutation in this gene is associated with Alzheimer′s disease. It is implicated in synaptic plasticity, dendritic morphogenesis and neuroprotection. APP modulates synaptic vesicle proteins and synaptic transmission. It is involved in GABAergic transmission and maintains the excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) balance.
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) plays a key role in Wnt signalling. It helps to increase synaptoxicity, that is facilitated by Dickkopf-1 (Dkk1). Mutations on this gene results in autosomal dominant early-onset Alzheimer disease (ADEOAD)/hereditary dementia with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA).

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a typical hippocampal amnesia and the most common senile dementia. Many studies suggest that cognitive impairments are more closely correlated with synaptic loss than the burden of amyloid deposits in AD progression. To date, there is
