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 ...

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 ...

Depopulation of dense α-synuclein aggregates is associated with rescue of dopamine neuron dysfunction and death in a new Parkinson's disease model.

, 2019
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the presence of α-synuclein aggregates known as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites, whose formation is linked to disease development. The causal relation between α-synuclein aggregates and PD is not well understood.

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.

Acetylated α-Tubulin and α-Synuclein: Physiological Interplay and Contribution to α-Synuclein Oligomerization

International Journal of Molecular Sciences; Volume 24; Issue 15; Pages: 12287, 2023
Emerging evidence supports that altered α-tubulin acetylation occurs in Parkinson’s disease (PD), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the deposition of α-synuclein fibrillary aggregates within Lewy bodies and nigrostriatal neuron degeneration. Nevertheless, studies addressing the interplay between α-tubulin acetylation

Nanomaterial‐based immune therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative diseases

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights the immunomodulatory potential of nanomaterials (NMs) in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It focuses on their roles in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses to maintain immune homeostasis. By providing insights into these mechanisms, the review lays the groundwork for innovative NMs therapeutic strategies to ...
