additional information in both neprilysin and amyloid precursor protein transgenic mice, neprilysin overexpression reduces soluble amyloid beta levels by 50% and effectively prevents early amyloid beta deposition in the neocortex and hippocampus. However, it does not reduce levels of amyloid beta trimers and amyloid beta*56 or improve deficits in spatial learning and memory. Neprilysin-dependent degradation of amyloid beta may affect plaques more than oligomers and these structures may form through distinct assembly mechanisms Homo sapiens
