Mitochondrial Neurodegeneration [PDF]

Cells, 2022
Mitochondria are cytoplasmic organelles, which generate energy as heat and ATP, the universal energy currency of the cell. This process is carried out by coupling electron stripping through oxidation of nutrient substrates with the formation of a proton-based electrochemical gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Rationale and design of the “NEurodegeneration: Traumatic brain injury as Origin of the Neuropathology (NEwTON)” study: a prospective cohort study of individuals at risk for chronic traumatic encephalopathy

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2022
Background Repetitive head injury in contact sports is associated with cognitive, neurobehavioral, and motor impairments and linked to a unique neurodegenerative disorder: chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).

Severe CTE and TDP-43 pathology in a former professional soccer player with dementia: a clinicopathological case report and review of the literature

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2023
In the last decades, numerous post-mortem case series have documented chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) in former contact-sport athletes, though reports of CTE pathology in former soccer players are scarce.

Nanomaterials and neurodegeneration [PDF]

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, 2015
The increasing application of nanotechnology in various industrial, environmental, and human settings raises questions surrounding the potential adverse effects induced by nanosized materials to human health, including the possible neurotoxic and neuroinflammatory properties of those substances and their capability to induce neurodegeneration.

Production of Recombinant Alpha-Synuclein: Still No Standardized Protocol in Sight

Biomolecules, 2022
Synucleinopathies are a group of neurodegenerative diseases, characterized by the abnormal accumulation of the protein alpha-synuclein (aSyn). aSyn is an intrinsically disordered protein that can adopt different aggregation states, some of which may be ...

Alpha-Synuclein: Mechanisms of Release and Pathology Progression in Synucleinopathies

Cells, 2021
The accumulation of misfolded alpha-synuclein (aSyn) throughout the brain, as Lewy pathology, is a phenomenon central to Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathogenesis.

Pharmacological Modulators of Tau Aggregation and Spreading

Brain Sciences, 2020
Tauopathies are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the deposition of aggregates composed of abnormal tau protein in the brain. Additionally, misfolded forms of tau can propagate from cell to cell and throughout the brain.

Mild traumatic brain injury induces microvascular injury and accelerates Alzheimer-like pathogenesis in mice

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2021
Introduction Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is considered as the most robust environmental risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Besides direct neuronal injury and neuroinflammation, vascular impairment is also a hallmark event of the pathological ...

C9orf72 repeat expansions cause neurodegeneration in Drosophila through arginine-rich proteins [PDF]

, 2014
An expanded GGGGCC repeat in C9orf72 is the most common genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. A fundamental question is whether toxicity is driven by the repeat RNA itself and/or by dipeptide repeat proteins ...
