Cellular prion protein expression is not regulated by the Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein intracellular domain.

There is increasing evidence of molecular and cellular links between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and prion diseases. The cellular prion protein, PrP(C), modulates the post-translational processing of the AD amyloid precursor protein (APP), through its inhibition of the β-secretase BACE1, and oligo...
