One of the products, with the long-winded name amyloid beta-peptide 42, has the unfortunate property that its molecules like to stick to each other.

所形成的产物之一有一个冗长的名字——淀粉样贝塔-肽42，它具有一种不祥的特性，即它们分子彼此之间容易纠缠在一起。

For the past decade there has been a lot of work on drugs called secretase inhibitors, which alter the activity of the enzymes that create amyloid beta-peptide 42.

在过去的10年里人们对被称为分泌酶抑制剂的药物进行了大量研究，这种药物可以改变酶类产生淀粉样贝塔-肽42的活动。
