  • Abstract
    The APP-processing pathway is a pathological component of Alzheimerʹs disease (AD), but there is no consensus regarding the physiological functions of APP and its products. Two studies () link the physiological and pathological aspects of APP processing. They show that the APP products, N-APP and Aβ42, are ligands for death receptor 6 and cellular prion protein, respectively, which are important in nervous system development and synaptic suppression.
