Abstract
Mutant presenilin proteins, known to promote the development of Alzheimer’s disease through increased generation of Aβ42 peptides, appear to compound this insult by downregulating the signalling pathway that adjusts levels of molecular chaperones in the endoplasmic reticulum in response to stress.
