Circulating neprilysin clears brain amyloid [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Neuroscience, 2010
The use of the peptidase neprilysin (NEP) as a therapeutic for lowering brain amyloid burden is receiving increasing attention. We have previously demonstrated that peripheral expression of NEP on the surface of hindlimb muscle lowers brain amyloid burden in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.

Blockade of the Neprilysin and Angiotensin Ameliorates Oxidative Stress in the Cardiovascular Target Tissues of Dexamethasone-induced Hypertensive Rats

open access: yesHaseki Tıp Bülteni, 2020
Aim:The imbalance between production of reactive oxygen species and antioxidant defense determines the degree of oxidative toxicity and severity of subsequent myocardial damage.We aimed to evaluate the anti-oxidative effects of neprilysin and angiotensin

Expression of Neprilysin in Skeletal Muscle by Ultrasound-Mediated Gene Transfer (Sonoporation) Reduces Amyloid Burden for AD

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2020
Amyloid β (Aβ) accumulation in the brain is considered to be one of the major pathological changes in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Neprilysin (NEP) is a zinc metallopeptidase that efficiently degrades Aβ.

Unraveling the Morphological and Functional Maturation Mechanisms Underlying Human Neural Development Using iPSCs‐Derived Neuronal Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs)‐derived neuronal model, Tian and colleagues reveal that voltage‐gated calcium channels Cav1.2 and Cav1.3, and their mediated calcium ion influx, are essential for early morphogenesis of human neuronal development, while ECEL1 underlies human neuronal functional developmental maturation through CALM3 ...

Neprilysin inhibition in chronic kidney disease [PDF]

open access: yesNephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2014
Despite current practice, patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of progression to end-stage renal disease and cardiovascular events. Neprilysin inhibition (NEPi) is a new therapeutic strategy with potential to improve outcomes for patients with CKD.

Dual Targeting of Tau Kinases and Autophagy by Abemaciclib Independent of CDK4/6 Inhibition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Abemaciclib rescues cognitive function and attenuates tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease models, but not through its known cancer‐fighting mechanism. This study demonstrates that abemaciclib operates independently of CDK4/6 inhibition, instead directly targeting tau kinases CaMKII and GSK3β while simultaneously promoting autophagic clearance of ...

Ginsenoside F1 Protects the Brain against Amyloid Beta-Induced Toxicity by Regulating IDE and NEP

open access: yesLife, 2022
Ginsenoside F1, the metabolite of Rg1, is one of the most important constituents of Panax ginseng. Although the effects of ginsenosides on amyloid beta (Aβ) aggregation in the brain are known, the role of ginsenoside F1 remains unclear.
