β-microglobulin amyloid fibril-induced membrane disruption is enhanced by endosomal lipids and acidic pH [PDF]

, 2014
Although the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathology of amyloidoses are not well understood, the interaction between amyloid proteins and cell membranes is thought to play a role in several amyloid diseases. Amyloid fibrils of β-microglobulin (βm),

Protein Misfolding, Signaling Abnormalities and Altered Fast Axonal Transport: Implications for Alzheimer and Prion Diseases

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Histopathological studies revealed that progressive neuropathies including Alzheimer, and Prion diseases among others, include accumulations of misfolded proteins intracellularly, extracellularly, or both.

Cognitive and Neuroimaging Divergence Between Juvenile and Adult FUS Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive motor neuron degeneration. Fused in sarcoma (FUS)‐associated juvenile ALS (jALS) represents a distinct and aggressive subgroup with rapid deterioration and poor prognosis.

Mitochondria‐Targeted Nanotherapies in Aging Neurodegenerative Disorders: Emerging Prospects and Clinical Potential

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Mitochondria‐targeted nanotherapies emerge as a promising strategy for combating aging‐associated neurodegenerative disorders (NDs) by restoring mitochondrial function, reducing oxidative stress, and improving neuronal survival. Recent advances in nanotechnology, therapeutic delivery, and translational research are highlighted, providing insights into ...

Ectodomain shedding of the amyloid precursor protein: Cellular control mechanisms and novel modifiers [PDF]

, 2006
Proteolytic cleavage in the ectodomain of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a key regulatory step in the generation of the Alzheimer's disease amyloid-beta (A beta) pepticle and occurs through two different protease activities termed alpha- and beta-

Distribution of Big Tau Isoforms in the Human Central and Peripheral Nervous System

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Tau is widely studied in neurodegeneration, yet most work has focused on canonical brain tau isoforms. A longer isoform, “big tau,” produced by inclusion of exon 4a, is expressed in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) regions.

Structure of the human TRiC/CCT Subunit 5 associated with hereditary sensory neuropathy

Scientific Reports, 2017
The human chaperonin TRiC consists of eight non-identical subunits, and its protein-folding activity is critical for cellular health. Misfolded proteins are associated with many human diseases, such as amyloid diseases, cancer, and neuropathies, making ...

Amyloid and tau in the brain in sporadic Alzheimer’s disease: defining the chicken and the egg [PDF]

, 2014
In the October 2013 issue of Acta Neuropathologica there were three very interesting articles on: Amyloid or tau: the chicken or the egg? In the first article, David Mann and John Hardy argued that the deposition of aggregated amyloid β (Aβ) protein in ...
