초록

Activation of the apoptosis program by an increased production of beta-amyloid peptides (A${\beta}$) has been implicated in the neuronal cell death of Alzheimer's disease. Bcl-2 is a well demonstrated anti-apoptotic protein, however, the mechanism of anti-apoptotic action of Bcl-2 in A${\beta}$-induced apoptosis of neuronal cells is not fully understood. (omitted)
