AP is liberated by sequential cleavage of amyloid precursor protein APP by P- and y-secre-tases. The Ivvel of Ap depends directly on the hydrolytic activity of P-secretase. Tliei fl ore. P-secretase is an excellent target for drug design. An ppro ich baved on RNA-cleaving ribozymes was developed to control expression of P-secretase. Two sites ff mRNA coding P-site APP cleaving enzyme were chosen as target sequences for endogenously delivered ribozymes. The rioo yme hasvstie was designed to constitute a catalytic hammerhead core and substrate recognition arms flanked at the 5 -teemincs by tRNAVal and at the 3 -teeminus by constitutive transport element sequences. Rioo _vme cavttvses were cloned into a pUC19 plasmid and used for transient transfection of HEK293 cells. We dymoattraie dial cudi ribozymes efficiently inhibit P-secretase gene expression at both the mRNA up to 95 and the protein up to 90 levels. Iiihíbmon ff P-site APP cleaving enzyme activity directly influences the intra- and extracellular population of AP peptide. TC i leỉ oiv such ribozymes may be considered as molecular tools for silencing the P-secretase activity and further as therapeutic agents for anti-amyloid treatment.
