Biological Information

  • Product Name
    Aftin-4
  • Note
    Research use only, not for human use.
  • Brief Description
    Aftin-4, an amyloid forty-two inducer, activates γ-secretase, promoting the generation of amyloid-β-1-42 (Aβ1-42) from amyloid-β protein precursor.
  • Description
    Aftin-4, an amyloid forty-two inducer, activates γ-secretase, promoting the generation of amyloid-β-1-42 (Aβ1-42) from amyloid-β protein precursor. Aftin-4 increased Aβ-1-42, but not Aβ-1-40 in mouse hipppocampus, accompanied by learning deficits and mitochondrial ultrastructural changes similar to those found in the brains of patients with AD. Aftin-4 can thus be used to induce a rapid, acute Alzheimer's disease-like toxicity in the rodent brain.
  • In Vitro
    Aftin-4 selectively and potently increases Aβ1-42 in N2a cells, primary neurons, and brain lysates, with an EC50 value around 30 μM.
  • In Vivo
    Aftin-4 increases Aβ1-42 levels in vivo in mice and provokes rapidly a sustained toxicity highly reminiscent of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aftin-4 is administered at increasing doses, between 3 and 20 nmol/mouse, into the lateral ventricle and animals are sacrificed at various time points, between 3 to 14 days after injection. The hippocampus is dissected out the contents in Aβ1-40 or Aβ1-42 is determined using a mouse ELISA assay. Aftin-4 dose-dependently and significantly increases Aβ1-42 content, up to +216% at the highest dose tested.
