Gamma secretase inhibitor impairs epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition induced by TGF-β in ovarian tumor cell lines
(Elsevier Ireland, 2017-01)
Ovarian cancer is characterized by being highly metastatic, a feature that represents the main cause of failure of the treatment. This study investigated the effects of γ-secretase inhibition on the TGF-β-induced ...
Astroglial mGlu3 receptors promote alpha-secretase-mediated amyloid precursor protein cleavage
(Elsevier, 2013-11)
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) shedding yields the Alzheimer´s disease (AD)-related peptide amyloid B (AB) through beta- and gamma-secretase cleavage. Alternatively, alpha-secretase cleavage generates a soluble and ...
PSEN1 and PSEN2 Gene Expression in Alzheimer's Disease Brain: A New Approach
(Ios Press, 2014-01-01)
Presenilin 1 (PSEN1) and presenilin 2 (PSEN2) genes encode the major component of y-secretase, which is responsible for sequential proteolytic cleavages of amyloid precursor proteins and the subsequent formation of ...
TrkA receptor activation by nerve growth factor induces shedding of the p75 neurotrophin receptor followed by endosomal gamma-secretase-mediated release of the p75 intracellular domain
(AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 2007)
Neurotrophins are trophic factors that regulate important neuronal functions. They bind two unrelated receptors, the Trk family of receptor-tyrosine kinases and the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75). p75 was recently identified ...
