A Genome-wide gene-expression analysis and database in transgenic mice during development of amyloid or tau pathology [PDF]
We provide microarray data comparing genome-wide differential expression and pathology throughout life in four lines of "amyloid" transgenic mice (mutant human APP, PSEN1, or APP/PSEN1) and "TAU" transgenic mice (mutant human MAPT gene).

The GAIIG sequence, common to the amyloid beta peptide (residues 29-33) and to the HIV-1 gp120 (residues 24-28 in a typical V3 loop), self-assembles into amyloid fibrils, as suggested by theory and the experiments presented here.

ABSTRACT The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is responsible for innervating all regions of the body outside of the central nervous system (CNS), the latter consisting of the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. While myelin is an essential component for the efficient functioning of both CNS and peripheral nerve cells, it is particularly important for ...

Regulation of the metabolism of the Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein by contactin 5 and BIN1 [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive form of dementia, which currently has no cure. The metabolism of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is an important determinant in the development of AD.

Background Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) is an inherited, progressive, and fatal disease still largely underdiagnosed. Mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene cause the TTR protein to destabilize, misfold, aggregate, and ...

A Computational Study of Amyloid Fibrils and their Structural Properties [PDF]
The term amyloid describes misfolded protein aggregates in which a highly ordered cross β-sheet pattern is adopted. While there exist functional amyloids, the majority of known amyloids are associated with diseases in multicellular organisms.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims In the NEURO‐TTRansform clinical trial (NCT04136184), eplontersen improved neuropathy impairment and quality of life (QoL) through Week 66 versus the NEURO‐TTR historical placebo in patients with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv‐PN).

The copper-amyloid-beta-peptide complex of Alzheimer’s disease: affinity, structure, fibril formation and toxicity [PDF]
PhDSenile plaques of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients are composed primarily of the amyloid-β-peptide peptide (Aβ), and within these plaques Cu2+ ions are found concentrated and directly bound to Aβ.

Pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus type 2: beyond the duo "insulin resistance-secretion deficit"
T2DM involves at least two primary pathogenic mechanisms: (a) a progressive decline in pancreatic islet cell function resulting in reduced insulin secretion and (b) peripheral insulin resistance resulting in a decrease in the metabolic responses to ...

Value of nerve biopsy in the management of peripheral neuropathies
International audiencePeripheral neuropathy is a common symptom throughout the population, with numerous possible etiologies. The diagnosis of peripheral neuropathies (and their causes) is mainly based on clinical, electrophysiological, biological, and ...
