Rare‐Variant Burden across Lysosomal Genes Implicates Sialylation and Ganglioside Metabolism in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lysosomal dysfunction is central to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis, with GBA1 representing the strongest established genetic risk factor. Numerous other genes involved in lysosomal sphingolipid, glycosphingolipid, and ceramide metabolism have been proposed as contributors to PD, highlighting the need for genetic analyses ...

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Small‐Molecule Kinase Inhibitors Modulating Circadian Rhythms

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circadian clock mechanism generates 24‐h rhythms crucial for regulating various physiological processes, and its dysregulation has been implicated in numerous diseases. In cells, the circadian clock operates through a transcriptional‐translational feedback loop, where phosphorylation plays a pivotal role in maintaining accurate circadian ...

At‐Home Versus in‐Clinic Vital Capacity Measurement: Insights From the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Respiratory weakness, typically monitored as vital capacity (VC), is a central feature of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). VC is increasingly measured remotely in participants' homes, although in‐clinic assessment remains the standard.

Schizophrenia as a GSK-3 dysregulation disorder

Trends in Neurosciences, 2007
Converging evidence suggests that the regulation of glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) might be important in schizophrenia. Atypical and typical antipsychotic drugs alter GSK-3 activity, as do drugs that induce psychosis. GSK-3 regulatory pathways are altered in schizophrenia, and many of the genes associated with schizophrenia directly or indirectly ...

GSK-3 and the neurodevelopmental hypothesis of schizophrenia

European Neuropsychopharmacology, 2002
The Neurodevelopmental Hypothesis of schizophrenia suggests that interaction between genetic and environmental events occurring during critical early periods in neuronal growth may negatively influence the way by which nerve cells are laid down, differentiated and selectively culled by apoptosis.

Anti-inflammatory Potential of GSK-3 Inhibitors

Current Drug Targets, 2021
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a protein kinase containing threonine or serine amino acid residues. GSK-3 was first discovered in 1980 as a regulatory protein kinase, Glycogen synthase (GS) enzyme, which is responsible for the conversion of glycogen from glucose with the help of uridine diphosphate glucose (UDP-Glu) residue.

Cdc42 & GSK-3: signals at the crossroads

Nature Cell Biology, 2003
Cell polarity is regulated by independent pathways that are controlled by Wnt- or Cdc42-mediated signalling. Now, glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3), an established component of the Wnt pathway, is shown to interact with Par6–protein kinase C ζ (PKCζ), a complex that transduces Cdc42 signals.

Novel pyrazolopyrimidine derivatives as GSK-3 inhibitors

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2004
A series of [1-aryl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-yl]arylhydrazones were discovered as novel inhibitors glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3). Based on initial modeling a detailed SAR was constructed. Modification of the interior binding aryl ring (Ar(1)) determined this to be a tight binding region with little room for modification. As predicted from the

Effect of GSK-3 overactivation on neurofilament phosphorylation

Journal of Huazhong University of Science and Technology [Medical Sciences], 2005
In this study, we studied the effect of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) overactivation on neurofilament phosphorylation in cultured cells. After N2a cells were treated with the specific inhibitor (wortmannin) of phosphoinositol-3 kinase (PI-3K) or treated with wortmannin and the specific inhibitor (LiCl) of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), GSK-3 ...
