摘要:
The invention relates to methods for administering inhibitors of acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) activity, and for treating Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, and other ACAT-related diseases. The invention also relates to sustained release delivery systems.
摘要:
The invention relates in part assays for identifying and testing compounds that modulate cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP). In addition, the invention relates to novel cleavage products of APP. The invention additionally relates to methods and assays for identifying compounds that inhibit acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) activity. The methods and products of the invention are useful for identifying compounds to prevent and/or treat APP-cleavage associated disorders (e.g. Alzheimer's disease) and are also useful for identifying compounds to prevent and/or treat ACAT-associated disorders.
摘要:
Pharmaceutical compositions for treating Alzheimer's disease are disclosed. The pharmaceutical compositions include a compound having the general formula: and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Methods for treating Alzheimer's disease, inhibiting ATase I and/or ATase 2, reducing the activity of BACE1, reducing the level of amyloid β-peptide (Aβ), and/or reducing the level of APP intracellular domain peptide (AICD) by administering such compositions are also disclosed.

摘要:
Compositions and methods for post-translational modifications that include protein acetylation in the ER lumen and deacetylation in the Golgi apparatus are provided. The disclosed methods are especially suited for the identification of compounds useful for the prevention or treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's.
