New Insights into Alzheimer’s Disease: Novel Pathogenesis, Drug Target and Delivery
Pharmaceutics, 2023 Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most common type of dementia, is characterized by senile plaques composed of amyloid β protein (Aβ) and neurofilament tangles derived from the hyperphosphorylation of tau protein.

Unconventional Pathways of Protein Secretion: Mammals vs. Plants
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 In eukaryotes, many proteins contain an N-terminal signal peptide that allows their translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum followed by secretion outside the cell according to the classical secretory system. However, an increasing number of secreted

Diffusion in Brain Extracellular Space [PDF]
Physiological Reviews, 2008 Diffusion in the extracellular space (ECS) of the brain is constrained by the volume fraction and the tortuosity and a modified diffusion equation represents the transport behavior of many molecules in the brain. Deviations from the equation reveal loss of molecules across the blood-brain barrier, through cellular uptake, binding, or other mechanisms ...

Brain extracellular space as a diffusion barrier [PDF]
Computing and Visualization in Science, 2011 The extracellular space (ECS) consists of the narrow channels between brain cells together with their geometrical configuration and contents. Despite being only 20-60 nm in width, the ECS typically occupies 20% of the brain volume. Numerous experiments over the last 50 years have established that molecules moving through the ECS obey the laws of ...

The Lysosomal Sequestration of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors and Drug Resistance
Biomolecules, 2019 The Lysosomal sequestration of weak-base anticancer drugs is one putative mechanism for resistance to chemotherapy but it has never been directly proven. We addressed the question of whether the lysosomal sequestration of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)

Thimet Oligopeptidase—A Classical Enzyme with New Function and New Form
Immuno, 2021 Peptidases generate bioactive peptides that can regulate cell signaling and mediate intercellular communication. While the processing of peptide precursors is initiated intracellularly, some modifications by peptidases may be conducted extracellularly ...
