Targeting TDP-43 Proteinopathies in Neurodegeneration by its Native-State Stabilization

Lixin Yang

Preventing the misfolding or aggregation of TDP-43 is the most actively pursued disease-modifying strategy to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other neurodegenerative diseases. In our work, we provide proof of concept that native state stabili ...

Deconstructing and Reconstructing the Complexity of Tau pathology

Galina Limorenko

This thesis consists of four Chapters unified by a singular theme â how do we develop disease models that faithfully reproduce the pathology seen in patients suffering from neurodegenerative disorders associated with the Tau protein, such as Alzheimerâ ...

Fully co-factor-free ClearTau platform produces seeding-competent Tau fibrils for reconstructing pathological Tau aggregates

Hilal Lashuel, Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Galina Limorenko, Rajasekhar Kolla, Meltem Tatli

The authors report a method for producing co-factor-free fibrils from all full-length Tau isoforms. The method paves the way for reconstituting pathology resembling Tau fibrils and enables screening of Tau aggregation-modifying compounds for targeted thera ...

Discontinuous Galerkin methods for Fisher-Kolmogorov equation with application to a-synuclein spreading in Parkinson's disease

Alfio Quarteroni, Francesca Bonizzoni

This spreading of prion proteins is at the basis of brain neurodegeneration. This paper deals with the numerical modelling of the misfolding process of a-synuclein in Parkinson's disease. We introduce and analyse a discontinuous Galerkin method for the sem ...

Tau seeds from patients induce progressive supranuclear palsy pathology and symptoms in primates

Grégoire Courtine, Tomislav Milekovic, Flavio Raschella

Progressive supranuclear palsy is a primary tauopathy affecting both neurons and glia and is responsible for both motor and cognitive symptoms. Recently, it has been suggested that progressive supranuclear palsy tauopathy may spread in the brain from cell ...

Capturing the heterogeneity of alpha-synuclein pathology in synucleinopathies

Melek Firat Altay

Synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies and multiple system atrophy (MSA) are detrimental neurodegenerative diseases. Alpha-synuclein (aSyn), the main aggregating protein found in the pathological inclusions of these ailmen ...

Deep MinCut: Learning Node Embeddings by Detecting Communities

Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Thành Tâm Nguyên, Chi Thang Duong

We present Deep MinCut (DMC), an unsupervised approach to learn node embeddings for graph -structured data. It derives node representations based on their membership in communities. As such, the embeddings directly provide insights into the graph structure ...

Towards elucidating the structural and cellular determinants of a-synuclein seeding and toxicity

Somanath Jagannath

Although it has been nearly two and half decades since the discovery of alpha-synuclein (aSyn) as the major component of Lewy bodies (LBs), our understanding of the involvement of different aSyn species, their seeding, spreading and toxicity in Parkinson's ...

Trans‐seeding of Alzheimer‐related tau protein by a yeast prion

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

Abnormal tau protein aggregates constitute a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. The mechanisms underlying the initiation of tau aggregation in sporadic neurodegeneration remain unclear. Here we investigate whether a non-human prion can seed tau aggregation. ...

Pathological substrate of memory impairment in multiple system atrophy

Hilal Lashuel, Melek Firat Altay

Aims: Synaptic dysfunction in Parkinson's disease is caused by propagation of pathogenic alpha-synuclein between neurons. Previously, in multiple system atrophy (MSA), pathologically characterised by ectopic deposition of abnormal alpha-synuclein predomina ...

Pathological Relevance of Post-Translationally Modified Alpha-Synuclein (pSer87, pSer129, nTyr39) in Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease and Multiple System Atrophy

Hilal Lashuel, Melek Firat Altay

Aggregated alpha-synuclein (alpha-synuclein) is the main component of Lewy bodies (LBs), Lewy neurites (LNs), and glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCIs), which are pathological hallmarks of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA ...

Does powder averaging remove dispersion bias in diffusion MRI diameter estimates within real 3D axonal architectures?

Marco Pizzolato

Noninvasive estimation of axon diameter with diffusion MRI holds the potential to investigate the dynamic properties of the brain network and pathology of neurodegenerative diseases. Recent studies use powder averaging to account for complex white matter a ...

To target Tau pathologies, we must embrace and reconstruct their complexities

Hilal Lashuel, Galina Limorenko

The accumulation of hyperphosphorylated fibrillar Tau aggregates in the brain is one of the defining hallmarks of Tauopathy diseases, including Alzheimer's disease. However, the primary events or molecules responsible for initiation of the pathological Tau ...

Structural strains of misfolded tau protein define different diseases

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

In diseases called tauopathies, misfolded tau proteins form aggregates called fibrils. Fibrils from nine different tauopathies show that tau misfolds in many ways, enabling the diseases to be classified according to fibril structure. ...

Direct measurement of the triple spin flip rate in dynamic nuclear polarization

Andrea Capozzi

A previous study of the effect of Gadolinium doping on the dynamic polarization (DNP) of C-13 using trityls showed that the rate at which the polarization builds up is almost independent of the Gadolinium concentration, while the electron spin-lattice rela ...
