In mechanistic studies, it was proposed that methylene blue inhibits the Aβ-ABAD interaction and decreases mitochondrial dysfunction by decreasing the expression of ABAD levels, in addition to decreasing Aβ levels. PubMed:30444369
Frentizole, an FDA approved immunosuppressant drug, was identified as an Aβ-ABAD interaction inhibitor (IC 50 = 200 M) using an ELISA-based screening assay. PubMed:30444369
However, it is well established that Aβ binding to ABAD induces a conformational change in the enzyme that prevents the binding of NAD + , preventing the enzyme performing its role in the oxidation of substrates, leading to changes in mitochondrial membrane permeability, which in turn has deleterious effects on mitochondrial enzymes. PubMed:30444369
Binding of Aβ to ABAD has been implicated in the development of AD, recent studies detected elevated ABAD levels in the regions of the hippocampus and cerebral cortex which are generally affected by AD pathology PubMed:30444369
Neurons from these animals exhibited increased oxidative stress, increased generation of ROS, DNA fragmentation, neuronal apoptosis, and impairment in learning, compared to single-transgenic mAPP mice. PubMed:30444369

In another study, neurons from Tg mAPP/ABAD mice were shown to exhibit decreased activity of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme, spontaneous release of ROS, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, a decrease in ATP production and release of cytochrome c from mitochondria with subsequent induction of caspase-3-like activity followed by apoptotic cell death.
