    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Free radical research 2012-11-15 Drug development

    Current evidence suggests that amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides may play a major role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease in part by eliciting oxidative stress.

  2. Memantine lowers amyloid-beta peptide levels in neuronal cultures and in APP/PS1 transgenic mice

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of neuroscience research 2010-01-01 Treatments

    Memantine is a moderate-affinity, uncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist that stabilizes cognitive, functional, and behavioral decline in patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease (AD).
