Serotonin regulation of nerve growth factor synthesis in neonatal and adult astrocytes: comparison to the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol.

abstract：:Finding inhibitors of the first step of the amyloid cascade, A beta (42) generation, is a major goal of Alzheimer's disease drug development. Two target protease activities, beta-and gamma-secretase, were detected more than 10 years ago but progress in this area has been slow because the enzymes were not identified. U...
