Adherent cells migrate and change their shape by means of protrusion and retraction at their edges. When and where these activities occur defines the shape of the cell and the way it moves. Despite a great deal of knowledge about the structural organizatio ...

Huntington’s disease (HD) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by an extended poly-glutamine tract in the huntingtin gene (HTT). Despite intensive efforts in understanding its pathogenesis over the decades, effective treatments for HD remain u ...

The natural enzymes involved in regulating many of the posttranslational modifications (PTMs) within the first 17 residues (Nt17) of Huntingtin exon1 (Httex1) remain unknown. A semisynthetic strategy that allows the site-specific introduction of PTMs withi ...

Structural relations established among agents influence the performance of decentralized service discovery process in multiagent systems. Moreover, distributed systems should be able to adapt their structural relations to changes in environmental condition ...

Histone deacetylase (HDAC) 4 is a transcriptional repressor that contains a glutamine-rich domain. We hypothesised that it may be involved in the molecular pathogenesis of Huntington's disease (HD), a protein-folding neurodegenerative disorder caused by an ...

Polyglutamine (PolyQ) diseases have common features that include progressive selective neurodegeneration and the formation of protein aggregates. There is growing evidence to suggest that critical nuclear events lead to transcriptional alterations in PolyQ ...

Ataxia is a clinical feature of most polyglutamine disorders. Cerebellar neurodegeneration of Purkinje cells (PCs) in Huntington's Disease (HD) brain was described in the 1980s. PC death in the R6/2 transgenic model for HD was published by Turmaine et al. ...

G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large eukaryotic protein family of transmembrane receptors that react to a signal coming from the extracellular environment to generate an intracellular response through the activation of a signal transduction path ...

R6/2 transgenic mice with expanded CAG repeats (> 300) have a surprisingly prolonged disease progression and longer lifespan than prototypical parent R6/2 mice (carrying 150 CAGs); however, the mechanism of this phenotype amelioration is unknown. We compar ...

The amyloid cascade hypothesis, supported by strong evidence from genetics, pathology and studies using animal models, implicates amyloid-beta (Abeta) oligomerization and fibrillogenesis as central causative events in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's diseas ...
