Multi-Targeting Macrocyclic Peptides as Nanomolar Inhibitors of Self- and Cross-Seeded Amyloid Self-Assembly of α-Synuclein

Hilal Lashuel, Muhammed Muazzam Kamil Syed

Amyloid self-assembly of alpha-synuclein (alpha Syn) is linked to the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has recently emerged as a risk factor for PD. Cross-interactions between their amyloidogenic proteins may act as molecular ...

Mitochondrial control of ciliary gene expression and structure in striatal neurons

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Dogukan Hazar Ülgen, Alessandro Chioino

Mitochondria play essential metabolic roles and are increasingly understood to interact with other organelles, influencing cellular function and disease. Primary cilia, as sensory and signalling organelles, are crucial for neuronal communication and functi ...

Phantom Boarder Relates to Experimentally‐Induced Presence Hallucinations in Parkinson's Disease

Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Jevita Potheegadoo

Phantom boarder (PB) is the sensation that someone uninvited is in the patient's home despite evidence to the contrary. It is mostly reported by patients with neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies or Parkinson's ...

Exercise and gait/movement analyses in treatment and diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease

Eduardo Martin Moraud

Cardinal motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) include bradykinesia, rest tremor and/or rigidity. This symptomatology can additionally encompass abnormal gait, balance and postural patterns at advanced stages of the disease. Besides pharmacological an ...

Engram cell connectivity as a mechanism for information encoding and memory function

Maurizio Ferdinando Pezzoli

Information derived from experiences is incorporated into the brain as changes to ensembles of cells, termed engram cells, which allow memory storage and recall. The mechanism by which those changes hold specific information is unclear. Here, we test the h ...

Uncovering the neural encoding of behavior in the adult Drosophila motor system

Chin-Lin Chen

One of the most important goals in neuroscience research has always been to understand how animals control their behavior. However, the long focus on the role of brain neurons in behavioral control might be missing the full story. In fact, brain-wide fluct ...

Neuronal Circuits In Barrel Cortex For Whisker Sensory Perception

Carl Petersen

The array of whiskers on the snout provides rodents with tactile sensory information relating to the size, shape and texture of objects in their immediate environment. Rodents can use their whiskers to detect stimuli, distinguish textures, locate objects a ...

Default mode network and the timed up and go in MCI: A structural covariance analysis

Alessandra Griffa

Background: The timed up and go (TUG) is a test used to assess mobility in older adults and patients with neurological conditions. This study aims to compare brain gray matter (GM) correlates and structural covariance networks associated with the TUG time ...

Calpain-mediated tau fragmentation is altered in Alzheimer's disease progression

Andrea Pfeifer

The aggregation of intracellular tau protein is a major hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The extent and the stereotypical spread of tau pathology in the AD brain are correlated with cognitive decline during disease progression. Here we present an in-d ...

A role for mitotic bookmarking of SOX2 in pluripotency and differentiation

Suliana Manley, David Michael Suter, Marion Leleu, Cédric Deluz, Aleksandr Benke, Andrea Callegari, Torgil Elias Friman, Mahé Cécile Raccaud, Daniel Strebinger

Mitotic bookmarking transcription factors remain bound to chromosomes during mitosis and were proposed to regulate phenotypic maintenance of stem and progenitor cells at the mitosis-to-G1 (M-G1) transition. However, mitotic bookmarking remains largely unex ...

Genetic dissection of the role of BMP signaling for the development of the auditory brainstem nuclei and the large calyx of Held synapse

Elin Kristina Kronander

Synapses are key elements for communication within the complex network of neurons that make up our brain. Interestingly, synaptic connections can differ greatly in form and function, depending on the specific circuit into which they are embedded. In this P ...
