“…Cleavage by the latter results in a β C-terminal fragment (βCTF) that contains the Aβ domain and generates Aβ and AβPP intracellular cytoplasmic domain when further processed by γ-secretase (Zheng and Koo, 2006, Zheng and Koo, 2011). The human AβPP metabolites Aβ and AβPP-CTF have been shown to exhibit some level of cytotoxicity in the pre-depositing brain, ranging from inducing endosome anomalies and apoptosis (Bertrand, et al, 2001, Cheng, et al, 2013, Deyts, et al, 2012, Jiang, et al, 2010, Kayed, et al, 2003, Lauritzen, et al, 2012, Lu, et al, 2000, McPhie, et al, 2001, Nhan, et al, 2014, Tamayev and D’Adamio, 2012, Tamayev, et al, 2012, Upadhaya, et al, 2012) to causing abnormal rewiring of neurons (Cheng, et al, 2011) and functional disruption of synapses (Lacor, et al, 2004). …”
