Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) in brain. Mounting evidence has revealed critical roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) in AD pathogenesis; however, the miRNAs directly targeting presenilin1 (PSEN1), which encodes the catalytic core subunit of γ-secretase that limits the production of Aβ from amyloid precursor protein […]
