Memory formation in old age requires GSK-3β
Glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) is a therapeutic target for various age-related neurodegenerative diseases. It is linked to the two main pathological features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), tau and amyloid β (Aβ); GSK-3β is a major candidate to ...

Silencing I2PP2A Rescues Tau Pathologies and Memory Deficits through Rescuing PP2A and Inhibiting GSK-3β Signaling in Human Tau Transgenic Mice [PDF]
Increase of inhibitor-2 of protein phosphatase-2A (I2PP2A) is associated with PP2A inhibition and tau hyperphosphorylation in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Down-regulating I2PP2A attenuated amyloidogenesis and improved the cognitive functions in transgenic mice expressing amyloid precursor protein (tg2576).

Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) is a constitutively active kinase. Since its activation results in neurofibrillary tangle (NFT) deposits in aged and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) brains, GSK-3β may be inhibited under normal conditions but activated under

GSK-3β inhibits autophagy and enhances radiosensitivity in non-small cell lung cancer
Background Radiotherapy is one of the most common and effective treatment methods for cancer, and improving the radiosensitivity of tumor tissues during the treatment process is vital.
