Catalpol Inhibits Amyloid-β Generation Through Promoting α-Cleavage of APP in Swedish Mutant APP Overexpressed N2a Cells

Amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), due to its neurotoxicity. Thus, blocking Aβ generation and aggregation in the brain has been realized as an efficient way for the prevention of AD. The natural product catalpol, isolated from Rehmannia gluti...
