instructions for use

The Amyloid-β Precursor Protein (APP) is cleaved by two secretase, first by the β-secretase and subsequently by γ-secretase to form Amyloid-β (Aβ). It is hypothesized that in the normal metabolic pathway of APP, the APP is first cleaved by an enzyme called α-secretase instead of the β-secretase, thus avoiding the formation of Amyloid-β. The endproduct of α-secretase cleavage, the soluble APPα (sAPPα) is considered to have neuroprotective instead of neurodegenerative function. In more recent research, it has been attempted to inhibit the β-secretase and to activate the α-secretase for treating AD. This assay kit can measure human sAPPα and therefore is a useful tool in transgenic animal model and human cell line based research. Also biological samples from humans can be measured. Separate control set available on request
