Aβ34 is a BACE1-derived degradation intermediate associated with amyloid clearance and Alzheimer’s disease progression

Aβ34 is generated from degradation of Aβ40 and Aβ42 by β-secretase. Here, the authors show that Aβ34 is a marker for amyloid clearance and is elevated in the CSF of patients that go on to convert from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s disease, suggesting it may be a useful biomarker.
