Changes in neuronal CycD/Cdk4 activity affect aging, neurodegeneration, and oxidative stress. [PDF]

, 2015
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in human diseases, including cancer, and proposed to accelerate aging. The Drosophila Cyclin-dependent protein kinase complex cyclin D/cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CycD/Cdk4) promotes cellular growth by ...

Chaperones in Neurodegeneration [PDF]

The Journal of Neuroscience, 2015
Cellular protein homeostasis (proteostasis) maintains the integrity of the proteome and includes protein synthesis, folding, oligomerization, and turnover; chaperone proteins assist with all of these processes. Neurons appear to be especially susceptible to failures in proteostasis, and this is now increasingly recognized as a major origin of ...

14-3-3 mitigates alpha-synuclein aggregation and toxicity in the in vivo preformed fibril model

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2021
Alpha-synuclein (αsyn) is the key component of proteinaceous aggregates termed Lewy Bodies that pathologically define a group of disorders known as synucleinopathies, including Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and Dementia with Lewy Bodies.

AMPK-autophagy-mediated inhibition of microRNA-30a-5p alleviates morphine tolerance via SOCS3-dependent neuroinflammation suppression

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
Background The development of morphine tolerance is a clinical challenge for managing severe pain. Studies have shown that neuroinflammation is a critical aspect for the development of analgesic tolerance.

Molecular mechanisms of the non-coenzyme action of thiamin in brain. Biochemical, structural and pathway analysis [PDF]

, 2015
Thiamin (vitamin B1) is a pharmacological agent boosting central metabolism through the action of the coenzyme thiamin diphosphate (ThDP). However, positive effects, including improved cognition, of high thiamin doses in neurodegeneration may be ...

Evolution of Neurodegeneration [PDF]

Current Biology, 2012
A number of neurodegenerative diseases principally affect humans as they age and are characterized by the loss of specific groups of neurons in different brain regions. Although these disorders are generally sporadic, it is now clear that many of them have a substantial genetic component.
