N-Acetylcysteine prevents amyloid-β secretion in neurons derived from human pluripotent stem cells with trisomy 21
Abstract Down syndrome (DS) is caused by the trisomy of chromosome 21. Among the many disabilities found in individuals with DS is an increased risk of early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although higher oxidative stress and an upregulation of amyloid β (Aβ) peptides from an extra copy of the...
