| Research Abstract |
A major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease is the accumulation of Amyloid ? (A?) in senile plaques. A? is generated from Amyloid precursor protein (APP). In this study, I found that the treatment with 24S-hydroxycholesterol, which is the brain-specific oxysterol, induced the expression of GRP78, an ER chaperone, through unfolded protein response pathways, and enhanced the formation of the APP/GRP78 complex. Thereby, 24S-hydroxycholesterol downregulates intracellular APP trafficking, resulting in the reduction of A? production.
