Antagonising a novel toxin “T14” in Alzheimer’s disease: Comparison of receptor blocker versus antibody effects in vitro

A 14mer peptide, T14, is a possible signaling molecule driving neurodegeneration. Its levels are doubled in the Alzheimer brain, but its effects can be blocked at the target alpha-7 receptor by a cyclised variant, ‘NBP14′, which has beneficial effects, in a transgenic mouse model, on the behavioral...
