Indeed, phorbol ester’s effect on sAPPalpha secretion and Abeta generation though activation of protein kinase C (PKC) has been known for a long time [201-203] PubMed:21214928
Interestingly, the stimulation of sAPPalpha secretion by estrogen can be blocked by a PKC inhibitor, suggesting the involvement of a PKC-dependent pathway [200] PubMed:21214928
In contrast to Abeta, sAPPalpha has an important role in neuronal plasticity/survival and is protective against excitotoxicity [42,43]. sAPPalpha also regulates neural stem cell proliferation and is important for early CNS development [57,58] PubMed:21214928
APP interaction with mint proteins has been shown to affect APP processing by stabilizing cellular APP, altering both sAPPalpha and Abeta generation and secretion [166] PubMed:21214928

An LRP-related protein 1B (LRP1B) has a similar effect, binding APP at the plasma membrane, preventing APP internalization, and leading to decreased Abeta generation and increased sAPPalpha secretion [189] PubMed:21214928
Co-expression of ADAM9 with APP promoted sAPPalpha production upon phorbol ester treatment, suggesting that ADAM9 possesses alpha-secretase activity [51] PubMed:21214928
Interestingly, the stimulation of sAPPalpha secretion by estrogen can be blocked by a PKC inhibitor, suggesting the involvement of a PKC-dependent pathway [200] PubMed:21214928
PKC stimulates sAPPalpha secretion, reducing Abeta levels, even when the phosphorylation sites on APP are mutated or the entire cytoplasmic domain is deleted [204] PubMed:21214928
A dramatically reduced ADAM10 protein level in the platelets of sporadic AD patients was also found to correlate with the significantly decreased sAPPalpha levels found in their platlets and cerebrospinal fluid [55] and the reduced alpha-secretase activity in the temporal cortex homogenates of AD patients [56] PubMed:21214928
Moderate neuronal over-expression of human ADAM10 increases sAPP-alpha production while reducing Abeta generation/ plaque formation in mice carrying the human APP V717I mutation, while expression of a catalytically-inactive form of the ADAM10 mutation increases the size and number of amyloid plaques in mouse brains (Postina et al. 2004) PubMed:22122372
However, although sAPP-alpha generation is not affected in ADAM9/17 knock-down cell lines nor in mice carrying deficient ADAM9/17 genes (Weskamp et al. 2002; Kuhn et al. 2010), over-expression of ADAM9/17 does increase the level of sAPP-alpha under some conditions, suggesting that ADAM9 and ADAM17 are more likely involved in the regulated alpha-cleavage of APP rather than in constitutive alpha-cleavage PubMed:22122372

While Abeta is neurotoxic, studies suggest that sAPPalpha is neuroprotective, making the subcellular distribution of APP an important factor in neurodegeneration [42-44] PubMed:21214928

We and others have also found that sAPPalpha can inhibit stress-induced CDK5 activation and participate in various neuroprotective reagent-mediated excitoprotection [44,59-61] PubMed:21214928

APP can also be cleaved by alpha-secretase to form a soluble or secreted APP ectodomain (sAPP-alpha) that has been shown to be mostly neuro-protective PubMed:22122372
The constitutively secreted sAPP-alpha has been found to be neuro-protective (Mattson et al. 1993; Furukawa et al. 1996a,b; Han et al. 2005; Ma et al. 2009) PubMed:22122372
sAPP-alpha is thought to promote neurite outgrowth and synaptogenesis as well as cell adhesion (Mattson 1997; Gakhar Koppole et al. 2008) PubMed:22122372
