1 We report that rapamycin (2.5muM), significantly increases Abeta generation in murine neuron-like cells (N2a) transfected with the human "Swedish" mutant amyloid precursor protein (APP). Sirolimus amyloid beta precursor protein Homo sapiens
2 In concert with these observations, we found rapamycin significantly decreases the neuroprotective amino-terminal APP (amyloid precursor protein) cleavage product, soluble APP-alpha (sAPP-alpha) while increasing production of the beta-carboxyl-terminal fragment of APP (beta-CTF). Sirolimus amyloid beta precursor protein Homo sapiens
