neprilysin-2 expression in human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell-derived macrophage-like cells which leads to secretion of the enzyme, to reduced level of soluble amyloid beta oligomer in the culture medium, and to alleviated neurotoxicity of amyloid beta. Intracerebrally administration of the iPS-ML/NEP2 cells to 5XFAD mice leading to significant reduction in the level of amyloid beta in the brain interstitial fluid. 5XFAD mice harbor three mutations in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene and two in the presenilin-1 (PS1) gene and are a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease
