Beta-amyloid protein promotes neuritic branching in hippocampal cultures.

Abstract:

:In the neuritic plaques of Alzheimer's disease, abnormal neuritic processes cluster around a core of beta-amyloid protein. Previous data have shown that beta 1-28, a peptide homologous to the first 28 amino acid residues of beta-amyloid protein, enhanced survival without affecting neuritic extension or branching in cultures of hippocampal neurons. In this paper we show that beta 1-42, a synthetic peptide which corresponds to the full 42 amino acid sequence of beta-amyloid protein, increased cell survival and also promoted the elongation of axon-like processes, raised the number of dendrite-like processes, and increased their arborization.

  • Valproic acid promotes neuronal differentiation by induction of neuroprogenitors in human bone-marrow mesenchymal stromal cells.
