, 2019 Huntingtin amino acids 1790-1798 make up a potential PAR binding motif (PBM3). Two huntingtin fragments (1208-1810 and 1775-2413) were tested for chromatin retention upon oxidative stress.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.We investigated the potential of iloperidone as an activator of Sigma‐1 receptor (S1R) neuroprotective function in juvenile Huntington's disease (jHD). We tested iloperidone on cortical neurons differentiated from patient‐derived iPSCs, demonstrating that it acts as a S1R agonist, decreasing apoptosis, huntingtin aggregation, and oxidative stress ...

The sorting nexin Snx21 promotes flotillin‐mediated endocytosis
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.In this study, we describe a novel function of the previously uncharacterized Snx21 protein as a specific positive regulator of flotillin‐mediated endocytic trafficking. Snx21 is recruited to endosomal membranes via binding to PI(3)P, and it colocalizes with flotillins on the surface of late endosomes.

PLoS ONE, 2014 Huntington disease is an adult onset neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric dysfunction, caused by a CAG expansion in the HTT gene. Huntingtin Interacting Protein 14 (HIP14) and Huntingtin Interacting Protein 14-like (HIP14L) are palmitoyl acyltransferases (PATs), enzymes that mediate the post-translational ...

20th Anniversary of human‐induced pluripotent stem cells and the role of microscopy
Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.Abstract It has been 20 years since the pioneering work of Shinya Yamanaka and Kazutoshi Takahashi at Kyoto University led to the first successful generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from mouse embryonic and adult fibroblast cells. iPSCs have the capacity to differentiate into any type of cell in the human body, and as such, they have ...

Neurobiology of Disease, 1999 Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by an expanded glutamine tract, which confers a novel aggregation-promoting property on the 350-kDa huntingtin protein.

European Journal of Pain, Volume 30, Issue 6, July 2026.ABSTRACT Background Fibromyalgia is a syndrome characterised by widespread chronic pain, which is believed to be mediated by a state of central sensitisation (CS). Based on the hypothesis that CS itself could have genetic determinants, our aim was to further explore this pathway.

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Polyproline II (PPII) helices are extended left‐handed secondary structures increasingly recognized for their roles in molecular recognition, signaling and within intrinsically disordered regions of proteins. Despite their functional importance, predicting regions with propensity to form PPII helices from sequence alone remains challenging due
