Notes: γ-Secretase is a multimeric aspartyl protease that regulates signaling pathways by proteolytically cleaving substrates, abrogating or releasing signaling molecules.{25415} Two well-known substrates are the carboxyl-terminal fragments (CTFs) of the receptor Notch, which has key roles in development, and that of amyloid precursor protein (APP), which is important in Alzheimer’s disease.{25415} Compound E is a potent, cell-permeable, and selective inhibitor of γ-secretase, blocking the cleavage of both APP and Notch CTFs with IC50 values of ~0.3 nM.{10410,10304,25417} Compound E induces neuronal differentiation, impairs ovarian folliculogenesis, and suppresses thymocyte development by preventing Notch activation by γ-secretase.{25412,25413,25411}
