title: Neurite outgrowth and the amyloid protein precursor.
abstract: Neurite outgrowth in Alzheimer's disease may well be a multifactorial phenomenon. Recent evidence suggests possible roles for the protease inhibitor domain of the 751 amino acid amyloid precursor protein (APP), as well as for the 695 amino acid APP.
