Mechanistically, the Aβ induced neuronal apoptosis has been attributed to the increase in the ratio of proapoptotic gene (BAX) transcription to that of the anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-Xl, and/or to the reduction in constitutively activated NF-κB with consequent increase in the cytoplasmic IκB proteins PubMed:25652642
