The invention relates to the use of a LAPTM4B-interacting molecule for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of a neurogenerative disease. Hereby the LAPTM4B-interacting molecule is preferably an inhibitor of LAPTM4B and particularly it has the capacity to modulate the activity of gamma- secretase and/or beta-secretase. Furthermore the invention concerns a process for identifying a gamma-secretase and/or a beta-secretase modulator, comprising the following steps: a. identifying of a LAPTM4B- interacting molecule by determining whether a given test compound is a LAPTM4B- interacting molecule, b. determining whether the LAPTM4B-interacting molecule of step a) is capable of modulating gamma-secretase and/or beta-secretase activity.

L'invention concerne l'utilisation d'une molécule d'interaction avec la LAPTM4B dans la préparation d'une composition pharmaceutique destinée au traitement d'une maladie neurodégénérative. De préférence, la molécule d'interaction avec la LAPTM4B est un inhibiteur de la LAPTM4B, et plus particulièrement, elle possède le pouvoir de moduler l'activité de la gamma-sécrétase et/ou de la bêta-sécrétase. Par ailleurs, l'invention concerne un procédé d'identification d'un modulateur de gamma-sécrétase et/ou de bêta-sécrétase, qui consiste à: (a) identifier une molécule d'interaction avec la LAPTM4B en déterminant si un composé d'essai donné est une molécule d'interaction avec la LAPTM4B, et (b) déterminer si la molécule d'interaction avec la APTM4B de l'étape précédente (a) est capable de moduler l'activité de la gamma-sécrétase et/ou de la bêta-sécrétase.
