The process of protein aggregation, central to neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington’s, is challenging to study due to its unpredictable nature and relatively rapid kinetics. Understanding its biomechanics is crucial for unraveling its role in disease ...

Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) is an aggressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the formation of Glial Cytoplasmic Inclusions (GCI) containing alpha-synuclein (aSyn) fibrils in brain tissue. The fundamental causes for many neurodegenerative dise ...

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 ...

Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most common progressive neurodegenerative disease, develops and progresses for 10-15 years before the clinical diagnostic symptoms of the disease are manifested. Furthermore, several aspects of PD pathology overlap with ...

With the advent of the genetic era in Parkinson's disease (PD) research in 1997, alpha-synuclein was identified as an important player in a complex neurodegenerative disease that affects >10 million people worldwide. PD has been estimated to have an econom ...

Loss of mitochondrial function and proteostasis typify aging and age-associated degenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and muscle aging. To date, no cure or preventive measure is available to manage these conditions. Alterations of cellular pro ...

Morphologically distinct TDP-43 aggregates occur in clinically different FTLD-TDP subtypes, yet the mechanism of their emergence and contribution to clinical heterogeneity are poorly understood. Several lines of evidence suggest that pathological TDP-43 fo ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease wherein motor neu-ron degeneration leads to muscle weakness, progressive paralysis, and death within 3–5 years ofdiagnosis. Currently, the cause of ALS is unknown but, as with several neuro ...

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 population of developed countries is aging at an ever increasing rate. Even in the absence of neurodegenerative diseases, aging affects perceptual and cognitive functions that are crucial for everyday life. The effects of healthy aging on cognitive abi ...

Passive immunization against toxic misfolded proteins could offer protection against neurodegenerative disease. LathuiliSre et al. report the development of a retrievable device to encapsulate cells secreting recombinant anti-amyloid-beta antibodies. When ...

Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons as well as the presence of proteinaceous inclusions named Lewy bodies. alpha synuclein (alpha-syn) is a major constituent o ...

OBJECTIVE: Alzheimer disease (AD) is the most common form of neurodegenerative disease in elderly people. Toxic brain amyloid-beta (ASS) aggregates and ensuing cell death are believed to play a central role in the pathogenesis of the disease. In this study ...

The developed world is aging faster than ever before. Even in the absence of neurodegenerative disease, aging affects all kinds of human functions including perception and cognition. In most perceptual studies, one paradigm is tested and it is usually foun ...

Mutations in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene cause late-onset, autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease (PD). The clinical and neurochemical features of LRRK2-linked PD are similar to idiopathic disease although neuropathology is somewhat heter ...

Defects in axonal transport are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disease. Because -tubulin acetylation facilitates axonal transport, inhibition of the -tubulin deacetylating enzymes, histone deacetylase 6 (Hdac6) and silent in ...

The molecular chaperone Hsp104 plays a central role in the clearance of aggregates after heat shock and the propagation of yeast prions. Hsp104's disaggregation activity and prion propagation have been linked to its ability to resolubilize or remodel prote ...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by a progressive loss of midbrain dopamine neurons and the presence of cytoplasmic inclusions called Lewy bodies. Mutations in several genes including alpha-synuclein and parkin have been linked to familial PD. The ...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the progressive loss of substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons and the presence of cytoplasmic inclusions named Lewy bodies. Two missense mutations of the alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn; A30P and A53T) have been desc ...
