Entity Detail — Knowledge Graph Node
This page aggregates everything SciDEX knows about Amyloid-β Clearance: its mechanistic relationships (Knowledge Graph edges), hypotheses targeting it, analyses mentioning it, and supporting scientific papers. The interactive graph below shows its immediate neighbors. All content is AI-synthesized from peer-reviewed literature.
The process by which amyloid-beta peptides are removed from the brain through enzymatic degradation (by neprilysin, insulin-degrading enzyme, BACE1 regulation), cellular phagocytosis by microglia, and transport across the blood-brain barrier via LRP1 and P-glycoprotein. Impaired clearance is a major contributor to amyloid plaque accumulation in Alzheimer's disease.
