Aim The amyloid precursor protein (APP) is endoproteolytically processed to generate either the neurotoxic beta-amyloid peptide (Aβ) or the secreted ectodomain APP alpha (sAPPα).

Polycarbonate nanogels enable lipid‐free delivery of anti‐MFAP‐5 siRNA into cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAF) in hepatocellular carcinoma. In a cirrhotic murine model, this approach silences MFAP‐5, reduces fibroblast activation, and suppresses tumor growth by inhibiting NOTCH/Hes1‐driven angiogenesis. CAF‐targeted MFAP‐5 RNAi and conserved signaling

Role of membrane biophysics in Alzheimer\u27s–related cell pathways [PDF]
Cellular membrane alterations are commonly observed in many diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Membrane biophysical properties, such as membrane molecular order, membrane fluidity, organization of lipid rafts, and adhesion between membrane and

Abstract INTRODUCTION Despite the identification of familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) genes and neuropathological alterations, AD displays complex genetic heterogeneity and molecular pathogenesis that warrant further investigation. GBF1 (Golgi brefeldin A resistant guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1) regulates protein trafficking, and genetic ...

Group III Secretory Phospholipase A2 Enhances Alpha-Secretase-Dependent Amyloid Precursor Protein Processing Through Alterations in Membrane Fluidity [PDF]
Phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) are responsible for maintenance of phospholipids homeostasis in cell membrane and implicated in neurodegenerative disease including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Among many types of secretory PLA2s, type III secretory PLA2 (sPLA2-III) is expressed in neuronal cells and contributes to cell differentiation and survival. Yet the role

Abstract INTRODUCTION Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a central nervous system (CNS) neurodegenerative disease leading to dementia, but can also show symptoms of motor deficits. It is not clear whether the peripheral motor deficits in AD are derived from upstream centers or intrinsic to the neuromuscular circuit.

alpha-Secretase nonsense mutation (ADAM10 Tyr167*) in familial Alzheimer's disease
Background The disintegrin metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10) is the main alpha-secretase acting in the non-amyloidogenic processing of APP. Some ADAM10 gene variants have been associated with higher susceptibility to develop late-onset AD, though clear clinical-genetic correlates remain elusive.

Isoflavones and alzheimer’s disease: the effects of soy in diet [PDF]
Pathologically, Alzheimer’s disease is a result of aggregation of amyloid peptides and protein tau in the brain forming neurofibrillary tangles which are highly toxic to neuronal circuits in the brain.

Tetraspanin 3: A central endocytic membrane component regulating the expression of ADAM10, presenilin and the amyloid precursor protein [PDF]
Despite existing knowledge about the role of the A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10) as the α-secretase involved in the non-amyloidogenic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) and Notch signalling we have only limited information ...

A perspective: PLA2G4A as drug target for vascular inflammation in Alzheimer's disease
Abstract Anti‐amyloid therapies for Alzheimer's disease (AD) modestly slow cognitive decline but carry significant risk of amyloid‐related imaging abnormalities (ARIAs), brain swelling, and hemorrhage, particularly in apolipoprotein E ε4 carriers. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and vascular inflammation drive this vulnerability, highlighting the ...
