Moraxella catarrhalis infection participates in Alzheimer's disease via APP coupling and Aβ production through the outer membrane protein UspA1
This study suggests that Moraxella catarrhalis contributes to AD pathogenesis through its extracellular vesicles and the UspA1 outer membrane protein, which participate in the APP proteolytic pathway and Aβ generation.
