Aspirin and its pleiotropic application
2020, European Journal of PharmacologyCitation Excerpt :Several clinical trials aiming to verify the possibility that acetylsalicylic acid halts the progress of AD have been conducted. One of them found that this well-known NSAID may decrease hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins (Tortosa et al., 2006). According to another piece of research aspirin, as opposed to other checked NSAIDs, did not reduce the risk of AD and dementia (Szekely et al., 2008).
Aspirin in Alzheimer's disease (AD2000): a randomised open-label trial
2008, The Lancet NeurologyCitation Excerpt :One of the neuropathological hallmarks of AD is the amyloid plaque, and aspirin might prevent or reverse formation of amyloid-β fibrils.13,14 Aspirin also decreases tau phosphorylation at serine 422, which might be an important event in the aggregation of amyloid-β peptide.15 Furthermore, aspirin can suppress the secretion of amyloid precursor protein from human platelets,16 and at higher doses attenuates inflammatory processes through inhibition of cyclo-oxygenases, which might also be important in AD.17
Neuroinflammation: Implications for the Pathogenesis and Molecular Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease
2008, Archives of Medical ResearchCitation Excerpt :Regarding this issue, studies performed in our laboratory have demonstrated that proinflammatory cytokines modulate the activity of cdk5 (7), a key enzyme in the anomalous phosphorylation of tau. Interestingly, it has recently been demonstrated that acetylsalicylic acid, a non-selective COX inhibitor, decreases tau phosphorylation at serine 422 (134), a posttranscriptional modification relevant to AD pathogenesis. A subset of NSAIDs has been shown to preferentially reduce the secretion of the highly amyloidogenic, 42-residue amyloid-peptide Aβ (1–42).
