Accumulation of Amyloid-Like Aβ in AEL (Autophagy–Endosomal–Lysosomal) Vesicles: Potential Implications for Plaque Biogenesis

Abnormal accumulation of Aβ (amyloid β) within AEL (autophagy–endosomal–lysosomal) vesicles is a prominent neuropathological feature of AD (Alzheimer's disease), but the mechanism of accumulation within vesicles is not clear. We express secretory forms of human Aβ 1–40 or Aβ 1–42 in Drosophila...
