Targeting Iron Responsive Elements (IREs) of APP mRNA into Novel Therapeutics to Control the Translation of Amyloid-β Precursor Protein in Alzheimer’s Disease

The hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the buildup of amyloid-β (Aβ), which is produced when the amyloid precursor protein (APP) misfolds and deposits as neurotoxic plaques in the brain. A functional iron responsive element (IRE) RNA stem loop is encoded by the APP 5′-UTR and may be a target fo...
