Memory loss and increased anxiety are clinical hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Kallikrein-8 is a protease implicated in memory acquisition and anxiety, and its mRNA is known to be up-regulated in AD-affected human hippocampus. Therefore, an involvement of Kallikrein-8 in Alzheimer’s pathogenesis is conceivable but remains to be proved.
