A Prion‐Like Domain in EBV EBNA1 Promotes Phase Separation and Enables SRRM1 Splicing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study discoveries that EBV EBNA1 behaves as a prion‐like protein, verified using cell‐based assays and the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sup35p prion identification system. The prion‐like domain of EBNA1 drives liquid–liquid phase separation. EBNA1 interacts with the splicing factor SRSF1 to regulate the expression of the SRRM1 splicing isoforms ...

Polyhalogenated Carbazole Impairs Dopaminergic Neurons through Dysregulation of Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Caenorhabditis elegans

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polyhalogenated carbazoles (PHCZ), persistent environmental contaminants, preferentially accumulate in neuronal tissues. Studies using Caenorhabditis elegans and human neuronal cell lines reveal that PHCZ induce dopaminergic neurodegeneration by promoting liquid–liquid phase separation of α‐synuclein, reducing condensate fluidity, impairing ...

Modulation of Biological Membranes Using Small-Molecule Compounds to Counter Toxicity Caused by Amyloidogenic Proteins

Membranes
The transition of peptides or proteins along a misfolding continuum from soluble functional states to pathological aggregates, to ultimately deposit as amyloid fibrils, is a process that underlies an expanding group of human diseases—collectively known ...

Potentiating Cerebral Perfusion Normalizes Glymphatic Dynamics in Systemic Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
LPS‐induced systemic inflammation increases glymphatic influx but delays cervical lymphatic drainage, accompanied by AQP4 depolarization and impaired glymphatic clearance. Enhancing cerebral blood flow via the inotropic agent levosimendan effectively restored AQP4 polarization, improving glymphatic flux and amyloid‐β clearance.

Are Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome at Increased Risk of Alzheimer Disease? Lessons from Insulin Resistance, Tryptophan and Gonadotropin Disturbances and Their Link with Amyloid-Beta Aggregation

Biomolecules
Alzheimer disease, the leading cause of dementia, and polycystic ovary syndrome, one of the most prevalent female endocrine disorders, appear to be unrelated conditions.

Structural and Functional Versatility of the Amyloidogenic Non‐Amidated Variant of the Antimicrobial Peptide Citropin 1.3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Citropin 1.3 is an antimicrobial peptide derived from amphibians that forms amyloid structures. Here, the structural and functional properties of citropin 1.3 are characterized. Using high‐resolution imaging approaches, a variety of canonical and undescribed fibril morphologies are identified.
