Prion-induced neurotoxicity: Possible role for cell cycle activity and DNA damage response. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Protein misfolding neurodegenerative diseases arise through neurotoxicity induced by aggregation of host proteins. These conditions include Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, motor neuron disease, tauopathies and prion ...

A survey and a molecular dynamics study on the (central) hydrophobic region of prion proteins

open access: yes, 2014
Prion diseases are invariably fatal neurodegenerative diseases that affect humans and animals. Unlike most other amyloid forming neurodegenerative diseases, these can be highly infectious. Prion diseases occur in a variety of species.

Earthing effects on mitochondrial function: ATP production and ROS generation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In contrast to sham and naive controls, grounded mitochondria not only exhibit significantly enhanced energy production but also demonstrate a remarkable reduction in membrane potential and oxidative stress. This suggests a profound improvement in mitochondrial health, presenting a promising avenue for therapeutic interventions.

Amyloid-β impairs mitochondrial dynamics and autophagy in Alzheimer’s disease experimental models

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The most accepted hypothesis in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the amyloid cascade which establishes that Aβ accumulation may induce the disease development.

Polydatin ameliorates ovalbumin‐induced asthma in a rat model through NCOA4‐mediated ferroautophagy and ferroptosis pathway

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this research, a rat model of asthma was created using OVA, and polydatin served as an intervention. By inhibiting ferroautophagy mediated by NCOA4 and averting ferroptosis, polydatin has been demonstrated to reduce asthma. This work presents new ideas for investigating the mechanism of polydatin's ability to alleviate asthma, in addition to ...

Neuroinflammation and Its Resolution: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Neuroinflammation, the complex immune response of the central nervous system (CNS), when sustained, is a common denominator in the etiology and course of all major neurological diseases, including neurodevelopmental, neurodegenerative, and psychiatric ...

De-regulation of gene expression and alternative splicing affects distinct cellular pathways in the aging hippocampus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
Aging is accompanied by gradually increasing impairment of cognitive abilities and constitutes the main risk factor of neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s disease. The underlying mechanisms are however not well understood.

Chemical Basis of Reactive Oxygen Species Reactivity and Involvement in Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Increasing numbers of individuals suffer from neurodegenerative diseases, which are characterized by progressive loss of neurons. Oxidative stress, in particular, the overproduction of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), play an important role in the ...

A Novel CHMP2B Splicing Variant in Atypical Presentation of Familial Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT C‐truncating variants in the charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) gene are a rare cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), previously identified only in Denmark, Belgium, and China. We report a novel CHMP2B splice‐site variant (c.35‐1G>A) associated with familial FTLD in Spain. The cases were two monozygotic male twins who
