Compositions and methods for inhibiting neurotoxic ubiquitin-proteasome proteolysis, and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. In particular, a method of suppressing the neurotoxic effect of .beta.-amyloid peptide, by administering an inhibitor to block .beta.-amyloid peptide-mediated ubiquitin- proteasome proteolysis. Preferred inhibitors are inhibitors of ubiquitination, such as leucine-alanine dipeptide, and inhibitors of post-ubiquitination proteasome activity, such as lactacystin.

Cette invention concerne des compositions et des méthodes permettant d'inhiber la protéolyse neurotoxique de l'ubiquitine-protéasome, ainsi que le traitement des maladies neurodégénératives. L'invention concerne en particulier une méthode propre à supprimer l'effet neurotoxique du peptide .beta.-amyloïde par administration d'un inhibiteur qui bloque la protéolyse de l'ubiquitine-protéasome induite par un peptide .beta.-amyloïde. Parmi les inhibiteurs préférés figurent des inhibiteurs d'ubiquitination, tels qu'un dipeptide de leucine-alanine, et des inhibiteurs de l'activité protéasome tel que la lactacystine.
