Final Report Abstract
We were able to show that modulation of proteostasis and activation of Akt survival signaling are functionally uncoupled biological properties of sAPPα that act via distinct signal transduction mechanisms. While the major molecular mechanisms in sAPPα-mediated Akt activation have been elucidated in this study, the exact molecular players involved in sAPPα-dependent modulation of proteostasis remain to be identified in future studies.
