Antagonism of a key peptide 'T14' driving neurodegeneration: Evaluation of a next generation therapeutic
T14, a 14mer peptide derived from the C-terminus of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a signalling molecule that could drive neurodegeneration via the alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. Its levels increase as Alzheimer’s pathology progresses; however, a cyclic variant of the compound, NBP14, can...
