Histological and functional aspects of Alpha-synuclein in neurodegeneration [PDF]

, 2010
Alpha-synuclein has been implicated in the cellular mechanisms that control auditory sensitivity. In other systems it can also confer protection against cellular injury.

Association between Plasma P‐tau217 and Alzheimer's Copathology and Cognitive Decline in Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Clinically relevant Alzheimer's disease co‐pathology is common in Lewy body disorders. Plasma P‐tau217 is a sensitive biomarker for amyloid and tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease. The objective was to determine if plasma P‐tau217 associates with Alzheimer's disease co‐pathology and cognition in Lewy body disorders. Methods Participants had (

Predominance of Ferroptotic Cell Death Mechanisms in Substantia Nigra Neurodegeneration in Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The extent of neuronal loss in Parkinson's disease (PD) and the pathogenic processes underlying neuronal dysfunction and loss remain poorly understood. Here, we analyzed the expression of key molecules representing different cell death signaling pathways and their association with Lewy pathology, dopaminergic (DA) neuron loss and stage of PD ...

Diffusion MRI and α‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Status in Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Positive α‐synuclein seed amplification assay (SAA) is a biomarker found in most people with Parkinson's disease (PD). We explored if free‐water (FW) imaging detects microstructural differences in the brains of patients with early PD with SAA+ or SAA– status.

Rab1A Over-Expression Prevents Golgi Apparatus Fragmentation and Partially Corrects Motor Deficits in an Alpha-Synuclein Based Rat Model of Parkinson's Disease

Journal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2011
Although the overabundance of human alpha-synuclein in nigral dopaminergic neurons is considered to play a pathogenic role in Parkinson's disease (PD), it remains unclear how alpha-synuclein leads to neuronal degeneration and motor symptoms.

Exosomal cell-to-cell transmission of alpha synuclein oligomers

Molecular Neurodegeneration, 2012
Background Aggregation of alpha-synuclein (αsyn) and resulting cytotoxicity is a hallmark of sporadic and familial Parkinson’s disease (PD) as well as dementia with Lewy bodies, with recent evidence implicating oligomeric and pre-fibrillar forms of αsyn ...

Analysis of Single Particles of Amyloid Beta and α‐Synuclein With Seeded Amplification for the Diagnosis of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), are characterized by the pathological aggregation of specific proteins such as amyloid beta (Aβ) and α‐synuclein, respectively. Early detection of these protein aggregates in biological fluids could facilitate timely diagnosis and therapeutic ...

Genetic code expansion for chemosensing and chemical actuation of biological functions

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Genetic code expansion (GCE) broadens the chemical repertoire for precise control of protein function in biological systems. This review highlights GCE‐based sensing and actuating systems that operate through selective interactions between noncanonical amino acids and chemical triggers.

Protein thermal stability in the undergraduate biochemistry laboratory: Exploring protein thermal stability with yeast alcohol dehydrogenase

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 209-217, March/April 2025.
Abstract We created a novel laboratory experience where undergraduate students explore the techniques used to study protein misfolding, unfolding, and aggregation. Despite the importance of protein misfolding and aggregation diseases, protein unfolding is not typically explored in undergraduate biochemistry laboratory classes.
