Sample Annotated Edges 5

complex(p(HGNC:APP), p(HGNC:LRP1)) increases a(CHEBI:"amyloid-beta") View Subject | View Object

Antagonizing the extracellular interaction between cell-surface APP and LRP increased the level of cell surface APP while decreasing Abeta generation [187] PubMed:21214928

a(CHEBI:"amyloid-beta") decreases bp(GO:"long-term synaptic potentiation") View Subject | View Object

Although excessive Abeta causes synaptic dysfunction and synapse loss [142], low levels of Abeta increase hippocampal longterm potentiation and enhances memory, indicating a novel positive, modulatory role on neurotransmission and memory [158,159] PubMed:21214928

a(CHEBI:testosterone) decreases path(MESH:"Plaque, Amyloid") View Subject | View Object

However, a recent study blocking the conversion of testosterone to estrogen found an estrogen-independent improvement in cognitive function and lowering of plaque formation along with a decrease in BACE1 mRNA, protein level, and activity [211]. In addition, testosterone may also reduce the protein level of PS1 [196] PubMed:21214928

complex(p(HGNC:APBA3), p(HGNC:APP)) association a(HBP:HBP00067) View Subject | View Object

APP interaction with mint proteins has been shown to affect APP processing by stabilizing cellular APP, altering both sAPPalpha and Abeta generation and secretion [166] PubMed:21214928

complex(p(HGNC:APBA2), p(HGNC:APP)) association a(CHEBI:"amyloid-beta") View Subject | View Object

APP interaction with mint proteins has been shown to affect APP processing by stabilizing cellular APP, altering both sAPPalpha and Abeta generation and secretion [166] PubMed:21214928
