    摘要: Isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding human PS1 gene products. Mutant PS1 polypeptides are also provided, as are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of the activity of the PS1 polypeptide and mutants thereof. Also provided are diagnostic methods for detecting Alzheimer's disease and therapeutic methods for treating the same.

    摘要: The present invention relates to novel uses for a family of small molecules, Differentiation-Inducing Factors (DIFs). It has been discovered that DIFs surprisingly can alter the metabolic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and in turn reduce the level of secreted Aβ. The metabolic processing of other γ-secretase substrates normally present in cells (Notch and APLP1) is not affected when treated with DIF. The invention provides methods for reducing Aβ production in mammalian cells that express APP by administering DIF-I, DIF-2, DIF-3, a functionally equivalent analog and or any combination thereof. The invention also provides methods for treating and/or preventing Alzheimer's disease by preferentially reducing Aβ production.
