Brain accumulation and aggregation of amyloid- (A) peptides is a critical step in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Full-length A peptides (mainly A1-40 and A1-42) are produced through sequential proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor pr ...

Amyloid formation of the protein α-synuclein promotes neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease. The normal function of α-synuclein includes synaptic vesicle transport and fusion, and the protein binds strongly to negatively charged vesicles in vitro. Here, ...

Super-resolution microscopy opened diverse new avenues of research by overcoming the resolution limit imposed by diffraction. Exploitation of the fluorescent emission of individual fluorophores made it possible to reveal structures beyond the diffraction l ...

In the past twenty years, far-reaching studies of molecular and cellular processes have reached a milestone in their maturation, and the knowledge from these studies was ready to apply at higher organizational levels. At that time, rodent models were long ...

Tauopathies are neurodegenerative diseases whose common pathological feature is the intraneuronal accumulation of tau aggregates. Tau protein has various roles in the neuron, among which stabilization of microtubules (MT), regulation of synaptic activity o ...

Designing compounds that bind to the acidic patch of the nucleosome core particle (NCP) is an emerging therapeutic approach that can inhibit the binding of key chromatin factors. Pretreatment of human ovarian carcinoma, A2780, cells with RAPTA-T, an antime ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects an estimated 5.8 million Americans, and advanced age is the greatest risk factor. AD patients have altered intestinal microbiota. Accordingly, depleting intestinal microbiota in AD animal models reduces amyloid-beta (A beta ...

The present invention is directed to a method of treating an amyloid-3 peptide disease in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound that enhances mitochondrial proteostasi ...

Alzheimer's disease is a common and devastating disease characterized by aggregation of the amyloid-beta peptide. However, we know relatively little about the underlying molecular mechanisms or how to treat patients with Alzheimer's disease. Here we provid ...

The pathway leading from amyloid-b deposition to cognitive impairment is believed to be a cornerstone of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, what drives amyloid buildup in sporadic nongenetic cases of AD is still unknown. AD brains featu ...

The impact of human adult ischemia-tolerant mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and factors (stem cell factors) on cerebral amyloid beta (Aβ) pathology was investigated in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD). To this end, hMSCs were administered intraveno ...

Cells are extremely complex systems able to modify actively their metabolism and behaviour in response to environmental conditions and stimuli, such as pathogenic agents or drugs. The comprehension of these responses is central to understand the molecular ...
