An Efficient Method for Isolation of Plasmid DNA for Transfection of Mammalian Cell Cultures
In this article, we present several protocols that describe the steps from cloning and obtaining a large amount of pure plasmid DNA to generation of lentiviruses based on these constructs.

The role and therapeutic targeting of α-, β- and γ-secretase in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly and its prevalence is set to increase rapidly in coming decades. However, there are as yet no available drugs that can halt or even stabilize disease progression. One of the main

Molecular neuroimaging techniques such as PET are proving valuable in the early and differential diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD).With the advent of new therapeutic strategies aimed at reducing β-amyloid (Aβ) burden in the brain to potentially prevent or delay functional and irreversible cognitive loss, there is increased interest in developing ...

Amyloidosis is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by the deposition of amyloid. It is caused by extracellular deposition of insoluble fibrils with beta-pleated sheet configuration. The protein misfolding abnormalities result in amyloid fibrils and may manifest as primary, secondary, or familial amyloidosis.

Prevalence and determinants of iron deficiency in cardiac amyloidosis
Aims Iron deficiency (ID) is common in patient with chronic heart failure (HF) and has been widely studied. In contrast, data concerning ID in cardiac amyloidosis (CA) are limited.
