Also, it is suggested that inhibitory activity of kernels extracts should be evaluated against different factors involved in the creation of AD such as βA aggregation, phosphorylation of tau proteins, and beta secretase (BACE1) to find the possible mechanism of action of apricot kernels for the treatment of dementia and improvement of memory to develop plant-mediated neurodegenerative drug discovery. The gene discussed is BACE1; the disease is Alzheimer disease.
