Intracellular accumulation of amyloid-beta - a predictor for synaptic dysfunction and neuron loss in Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2010
Despite of long-standing evidence that beta-amyloid (Aβ) peptides have detrimental effects on synaptic function, the relationship between Aβ, synaptic and neuron loss is largely unclear.

Potential neuroprotective of trans-resveratrol a promising agent tempeh and soybean seed coats-derived against beta-amyloid neurotoxicity on primary culture of nerve cells induced by 2-methoxyethanol

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2021
Resveratrol, a natural polyphenol found in tempeh, has not been investigated especially in vitro as a neuroprotective agent against 2-methoxyethanol (2-ME)-induced beta-amyloid cytotoxicity. Beta amyloid peptides (Aβ) could initiate neurotoxic events and

The role and therapeutic targeting of α-, β- and γ-secretase in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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

cAMP-Inhibits Cytoplasmic Phospholipase A(2) and Protects Neurons against Amyloid-beta-Induced Synapse Damage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A key event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the production of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides and the loss of synapses. In cultured neurons Aβ triggered synapse damage as measured by the loss of synaptic proteins. α-synuclein (αSN), aggregates of which accumulate

Brain Region-Specific Differences in Amyloid-β Plaque Composition in 5XFAD Mice

open access: yesLife, 2023
Senile plaques consisting of amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptides are a major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aβ peptides are heterogeneous regarding the exact length of their amino- and carboxy-termini. Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42 are often considered to

Mulberry Fruit Cultivar ‘Chiang Mai’ Prevents Beta-Amyloid Toxicity in PC12 Neuronal Cells and in a Drosophila Model of Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, characterized by chronic neuron loss and cognitive problems. Aggregated amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides, a product of cleaved amyloid precursor protein (APP) by beta-secretase 1 (BACE-1), have been

Neurodevelopmental disorders and microcephaly: how apoptosis, the cell cycle, tau and amyloid-β precursor protein APPly

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
Recent studies promote new interest in the intersectionality between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and Alzheimer’s Disease. We have reported high levels of Amyloid-β Precursor Protein (APP) and secreted APP-alpha (sAPPa) and low levels of amyloid-beta ...

Investigation of low amyloid level toxicity effects on the function of hippocampal neurons

open access: yesOpen Life Sciences, 2015
Alzheimer disease (AD) is responsible for the majority of elderly dementia cases. There are multiple mouse models of AD, however, none of them completely recapitulate human pathology.

Selective inhibition of phosphodiesterases 4, 5 and 9 induces HSP20 phosphorylation and attenuates amyloid beta 1-42 mediated cytotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors are currently under evaluation as agents that may facilitate the improvement of cognitive impairment associated with Alzheimer's disease. Our aim was to determine whether inhibitors of PDEs 4,5 and 9 could alleviate the

NADPH oxidase as a therapeutic target in Alzheimer\u27s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
At present, available treatments for Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD) are largely unable to halt disease progression. Microglia, the resident macrophages in the brain, are strongly implicated in the pathology and progressively degenerative nature of AD ...
