LY2811376

LY 281137 is a compound capable of the decrease in β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) associated with the cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by β-secretase (BACE) and γ-secretase. This decrease is important as its hypothesized that the build up of (Aβ) in the brain is a primary cause of neurodegeneration and Alzheimer’s progression.
