Glucocerebrosidase is imported into mitochondria and preserves complex I integrity and energy metabolism

Nature Communications, 2023
GBA1 mutations cause Gaucher’s disease and are the strongest risk factor for Parkinson’s disease. Using stable cell lines and patient iPSCs, the authors show mitochondrial localization of GBA1, which may affect neurodegenerative disease risk.

TALKING TIME: A pilot randomized controlled trial investigating social support for informal caregivers via the telephone

BMC Health Services Research, 2020
Background Caring for people with dementia at home requires considerable time, organization and commitment. Therefore, informal caregivers of people with dementia are often overburdened. This study examined the effects of the telephone-based Talking Time

Exploring the ATN classification system using brain morphology

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2023
Background The NIA-AA proposed amyloid-tau-neurodegeneration (ATN) as a classification system for AD biomarkers. The amyloid cascade hypothesis (ACH) implies a sequence across ATN groups that patients might undergo during transition from healthy towards ...

Inflammation in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]

Immunology, 2010
Summary Neurodegeneration, the slow and progressive dysfunction and loss of neurons and axons in the central nervous system, is the primary pathological feature of acute and chronic neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, neurotropic viral infections, stroke, paraneoplastic disorders, traumatic brain injury and

Ubiquitin in Neurodegenerative Diseases

Brain Pathology, 1993
Immunochemical staining to detect ubiquitin has become an essential technique in evaluating neurodegenerative processes. Age related staining is seen in myelin, in nerve processes in lysosome‐related dense bodies, and in corpora amylacea. There is a constant association between filamentous inclusions and the presence of ubiquitin.

FRET-based Tau seeding assay does not represent prion-like templated assembly of Tau filaments

Molecular Neurodegeneration, 2020
Tau aggregation into amyloid fibers based on the cross-beta structure is a hallmark of several Tauopathies, including Alzheimer Disease (AD). Trans-cellular propagation of Tau with pathological conformation has been suggested as a key disease mechanism ...

Pathology of Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2017
Neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by progressive loss of selectively vulnerable populations of neurons, which contrasts with select static neuronal loss because of metabolic or toxic disorders. Neurodegenerative diseases can be classified according to primary clinical features (e.g., dementia, parkinsonism, or motor neuron disease ...

Improving 3D convolutional neural network comprehensibility via interactive visualization of relevance maps: evaluation in Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Although convolutional neural networks (CNNs) achieve high diagnostic accuracy for detecting Alzheimer’s disease (AD) dementia based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, they are not yet applied in clinical routine.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.
