Graphical Abstract

Drugs targeting APOE4 that regulate beta-amyloid aggregation in the brain: Therapeutic potential for Alzheimer's disease Issue 3, 2024

Apoliprotein E4 (ApoE4) promotes the aggregation of amyloid plaques in neurons, one of the key elements of Alzheimer's disease. This aggregation can be inhibited by ApoE4 mimetic peptides, ApoE4 structure-correcting molecules and monoclonal antibodies, as well as by loop diuretics, some antidepressants and some peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ligands.
