Calcium in the initiation, progression and as an effector of Alzheimer's disease pathology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The cause(s) of sporadic Alzheimer's disease (sAD) are complex and currently poorly understood. They likely result from a combination of genetic, environmental, proteomic and lipidomic factors that crucially occur only in the aged brain.

Force Sensitivity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Flocculins

open access: yesmSphere, 2016
Many fungal adhesins have short, β-aggregation-prone sequences that play important functional roles, and in the Candida albicans adhesin Als5p, these sequences cluster the adhesins after exposure to shear force.

Proteinopathy, oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction: cross talk in alzheimer’s disease and parkinson’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are two common neurodegenerative diseases of the elderly people that have devastating effects in terms of morbidity and mortality.

Amyloid-Beta Influences Memory via Functional Connectivity During Memory Retrieval in Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
Objective: Amnesia in Alzheimer's disease (AD) appears early and could be caused by encoding deficiency, consolidation dysfunction, and/or impairment in the retrieval of stored memory information. The relationship between AD pathology biomarker β-amyloid

Manipulation of lipid rafts in neuronal cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Lipid rafts are specialized plasma membrane micro-domains highly enriched in cholesterol, sphingolipids and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored proteins.

An Amyloid Core Sequence in the Major Candida albicans Adhesin Als1p Mediates Cell-Cell Adhesion

open access: yesmBio, 2019
The human fungal commensal Candida albicans can become a serious opportunistic pathogen in immunocompromised hosts. The C. albicans cell adhesion protein Als1p is a highly expressed member of a large family of paralogous adhesins.

AmyPro: a database of proteins with validated amyloidogenic regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Soluble functional proteins may transform into insoluble amyloid fibrils that deposit in a variety of tissues. Amyloid formation is a hallmark of age-related degenerative disorders.

Co-aggregation and secondary nucleation in the life cycle of human prolactin/galanin functional amyloids

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Synergistic-aggregation and cross-seeding by two different proteins/peptides in the amyloid aggregation are well evident in various neurological disorders including Alzheimer’s disease.

Hypoxic regulation of ion channel function and expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Acute hypoxia regulates the activity of specific ion channels in a rapid and reversible manner. Such effects underlie appropriate cellular responses to hypoxia which are designed to initiate cardiorespiratory reflexes and contribute importantly to other ...

The Sheaths of Methanospirillum Are Made of a New Type of Amyloid Protein

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The genera Methanospirillum and Methanosaeta contain species of anaerobic archaea that grow and divide within proteinaceous tubular sheaths that protect them from environmental stressors.
