1 | To investigate the preventive action of DHED in Alzheimer"s disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by memory decline, amyloid-beta (Abeta) protein-containing neuritic plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, in this study, we proposed that DHED may be therapeutically effective against the memory impairment and disease-related neurochemical changes that occur in Tg2576 (Tg) mice. | 3,16-dihydroxyandrost-5-ene-17,19-dione | amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein | Mus musculus |
2 | Additionally, we investigated whether DHED may be a beta-secretase inhibitor that affects the production of Abeta related to the formation of neuritic plaques. | 3,16-dihydroxyandrost-5-ene-17,19-dione | amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein | Mus musculus |
3 | In conclusion, DHED may exhibit therapeutic effects for AD as a beta-secretase inhibitor. | 3,16-dihydroxyandrost-5-ene-17,19-dione | amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein | Mus musculus |
