Cerebrospinal fluid Aβ42/40 corresponds better than Aβ42 to amyloid PET in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Background: Decreased concentrations of amyloid-β 1-42 (Aβ(42)) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and increased retention of Aβ tracers in the brain on positron emission tomography (PET) are considered the earliest biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD ...

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

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

Beta-amyloid (Aβ) peptides are the specific biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Many clinical studies have suggested that abnormal levels of Aβ peptides in blood, cerebrospinal fluid and brain tissue are closely related to the progression of AD ...

BACE1 activity impairs neuronal glucose oxidation:rescue by beta-hydroxybutyrate and lipoic acid [PDF]
Glucose hypometabolism and impaired mitochondrial function in neurons have been suggested to play early and perhaps causative roles in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Activity of the aspartic acid protease, beta-site amyloid precursor protein (APP)

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

Molecular Dynamics Studies on 3D Structures of the Hydrophobic Region PrP(109-136) [PDF]
Prion diseases caused by the conversion from a soluble normal cellular prion protein into insoluble abnormally folded infectious prions, are invariably fatal and highly infectious degenerative diseases that affect a wide variety of mammalian species. The

Oligomers mediate the spatial transmission of Aβ peptide aggregation
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is marked by the abnormal aggregation of amyloid-beta peptides within the central nervous system. The formation of amyloid fibrils from amyloid-beta peptides is a hallmark of AD Here, we demonstrate that the aggregation of ...

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

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 ...
