http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/22609375http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Accumulation of amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) in senile plaques, a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), has been implicated in neuronal degeneration. Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockers, including the renin inhibitor aliskiren, are a group of clinically relevant anti-hypertensive agents. The present study was initiated to investigate whether aliskiren may modulate Aβ neurotoxicity as an additional function aside from its established property of lowering blood pressure. We found aliskiren conferred neuronal resistance to Aβ toxicity in primary rat cortical cultures. Moreover, both Aβ25-35 and Aβ1-42 induced renin expression in cortical neurons; in parallel, a heightened expression of renin was detected in the cerebral cortices of 9-month-old AD transgenic mice. Notably, aliskiren blocked Aβ-mediated neuronal induction of renin. We therefore concluded that aliskiren may carry neuroprotective action against Aβ toxicity. Furthermore, the aliskiren effects may involve downregulation of renin expression induced by Aβ."xsd:string
