A method of regulating phosphorylation of proteins involved in controlling processing or function of key proteins found in intracellular neurofibrillary tangles and extracellular amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer disease comprising introducing an effective amount of a kinase
Agents which modulate or affect the intracellular trafficking and processing of proteins in the mammalian cell can be utilized to affect the trafficking and processing of APP, thereby inhibiting production of Alzheimer type amyloidosis. Particularly useful agents are chloroquine and
