== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IDE_HUMAN IDE_HUMAN] Plays a role in the cellular breakdown of insulin, IAPP, glucagon, bradykinin, kallidin and other peptides, and thereby plays a role in intercellular peptide signaling. Degrades amyloid formed by APP and IAPP. May play a role in the degradation and clearance of naturally secreted amyloid beta-protein by neurons and microglia.<ref>PMID:10684867</ref> <ref>PMID:17613531</ref> <ref>PMID:18986166</ref>
