The latest work from the Neural Degeneration and Plasticity team, in collaboration with the BBB and neuroinflammation team of Michel Khrestchatisky: "The pro-amyloidogenic effects of Membrane-type 1-Matrix Metalloproteinase involve MMP-2 and BACE-1 activities, and the modulation of APP trafficking" is now published in the FASEB Journal (doi: 10.1096/fj.201801076R). Our data unveil new mechanistic insights supporting the pro-amyloidogenic role of MT1-MMP based on APP processing and trafficking, and reinforces the idea that MT1-MMP may become a new potential therapeutic target in Alzheimer’s disease.
