Provided are methods of treating or reducing the risk of developing beta-amyloid production, beta-amyloid deposition, beta-amyloid neurotoxicity (including abnormal hyperphosphorylation of tau) and microgliosis associated with cerebral accumulation of Alzheimer's amyloid by administering therapeutically effective amounts of polyhydroquinoline and dihydropyridine compounds which decrease Abeta production in cells. Further provided are methods for diagnosing diseases associated with cerebral accumulation of Alzheimer's amyloid in animals or humans by administering diagnostically effective amounts of polyhydroquinoline and dihydropyridine compounds which decrease Abeta production in cells.
