Fatty acids increase presenilin-1 levels and γ-secretase activity in PSwt-1 cells
Presenilin-1 (PS1) is an important determinant of the γ-secretase activity necessary for the generation of β-amyloid (Aβ), likely the central pathogenic molecule in Alzheimer's disease. Most presenilin is rapidly degraded, and determinants of the level of the active cleaved form are unknown. We...
