Temporal Lobe
A dramatically reduced ADAM10 protein level in the platelets of sporadic AD patients was also found to correlate with the significantly decreased sAPPalpha levels found in their platlets and cerebrospinal fluid [55] and the reduced alpha-secretase activity in the temporal cortex homogenates of AD patients [56] PubMed:21214928
In contrast to Abeta, sAPPalpha has an important role in neuronal plasticity/survival and is protective against excitotoxicity [42,43]. sAPPalpha also regulates neural stem cell proliferation and is important for early CNS development [57,58] PubMed:21214928
