Changes in intracellular calcium and glutathione in astrocytes as the primary mechanism of amyloid neurotoxicity [PDF]

, 2003
Although the accumulation of the neurotoxic peptide {beta} amyloid ({beta}A) in the CNS is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease, the mechanism of {beta}A neurotoxicity remains controversial.

Unraveling Alzheimer’s: the promise of aducanumab, lecanemab, and donanemab

The Egyptian Journal of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition that causes cognitive decline, memory loss, and reduced personal autonomy. The pathology of AD involves the aggregation of abnormal brain proteins, specifically beta-amyloid plaques and tau ...

Aberrant GRP78 Phase Transition Sustains Endothelial IRE1α Signaling and Drives Blood–Brain Barrier Failure in Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Vascular Aβ40 corrupts GRP78 phase behavior in brain endothelial cells, sustaining IRE1α–TRAF2–JNK signaling and driving apoptosis, tight junction loss, and blood–brain barrier failure in cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Pharmacological IRE1α inhibition restores vascular integrity, reduces leakage, and improves functional outcomes, revealing a targetable ...

Targeting Hippocampal PTEN Suppresses Ferroptosis and Rescues Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer's Disease via Dual AKT/GSK3β/Nrf2 and AKT/STAT3 Axes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PTEN knockdown activates AKT phosphorylation, promoting Nrf2 nuclear translocation and STAT3 activation, which upregulates GPX4 and antioxidant enzymes HO‐1, SOD1, SOD2, and NQO1. These coordinated changes reduce lipid peroxidation and ROS, inhibit ferroptosis, and ultimately ameliorate cognitive impairment in APP/PS1 transgenic mice, highlighting a ...

Entorhinal Astrocyte Transplants Restore Spatial Exploration and Alleviate Amyloid‐Beta Pathology in Alzheimer's Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Impaired MEC astrocytic Ca2+ signaling is associated with fragmented spatial exploration in AD mice. Region‐specific glial progenitor transplantation generates engrafted astrocytes that are accompanied by improved AQP4 polarization, reduced amyloid‐β‐associated pathology, attenuated neuroinflammation, preserved synaptic integrity, and ameliorated ...

α‐Synuclein Forms Distinct Micelle‐Like Assemblies at Low Ionic Strengths

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
At high ionic strength, α‐synuclein forms diverse assemblies, including oligomers, fibrils, and condensates. Here, we show that at low ionic strength, α‐synuclein adopts a distinct, low‐abundance assembly state. These assemblies maintain a constant size above a critical concentration and do not coalesce, suggesting a micelle‐like organization ...

The Effect of Amyloid Beta on Synapses

, 2019
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that leads to cognitive deficits. The brain dysfunction in AD is marked by an increase in amyloid-beta, the protein responsible for plaque deposition in the brain.

Supramolecular Degraders: An Emerging Paradigm in Targeted Protein Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dynamic supramolecular assembly reshapes targeted protein degradation by coordinating modular degrader construction, delivery, functional integration, and intracellular assembly or activation across proteasomal, endosomal–lysosomal, and autophagy–lysosomal pathways.
