Abstract INTRODUCTION Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia. Studies have suggested prevalence is greater in individuals self‐identifying as Hispanic. Population‐specific results enable personalized and equitable interventions. Ethnicity as a stratifier co‐occurs with genomic inflation due to heterogeneity.

Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive, age‐related, neurodegenerative disorder marked by cognitive decline, memory loss, and accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques and tau tangles. A key feature of AD is impaired protein homeostasis, often driven by autophagy dysfunction.

Subcellular Mechanisms of Presenilin-Mediated Enhancement of Calcium Signaling
Mutations in presenilin-1 (PS1), the leading cause of early-onset, autosomal-dominant familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD), enhance calcium signaling mediated by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3).

Abstract INTRODUCTION Genome‐wide association studies have identified numerous Alzheimer's disease (AD) susceptibility loci in European populations. However, the genetic architecture of AD in non‐European populations remains underinvestigated. METHODS We performed a genetic association study in East Asians (N = 8514) to validate known AD loci and ...

Toward the structure of presenilin/γ-secretase and presenilin homologs
Presenilin is the catalytic component of the γ-secretase complex, a membrane-embedded aspartyl protease that plays a central role in biology and in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Upon assembly with its three protein cofactors (nicastrin, Aph-1 and Pen-2), presenilin undergoes autoproteolysis into two subunits, each of which contributes one of

Presenilin Promotes Dietary Copper Uptake
Dietary copper is essential for multicellular organisms. Copper is redox active and required as a cofactor for enzymes such as the antioxidant Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD1). Copper dyshomeostasis has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Mutations in the presenilin genes encoding PS1 and PS2 are major causes of early-onset familial Alzheimer's ...

Salvia coccinea and Apigenin: A Natural Treasure of Lamiaceae in Pharmacological Innovation
Salvia coccinea is rich in bioactive phytochemicals, notably the flavonoid apigenin, offering strong antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects. By modulating inflammatory and oxidative pathways, it shows potential for managing chronic diseases.

Role of Presenilin in Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress and Neurodegeneration in Caenorhabditis elegans
Neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are poised to become a global health crisis, and therefore understanding the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis is critical for the development of therapeutic strategies.

Ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) from Panax ginseng shows multifunctional health effects. Although oral bioavailability is low and blood–brain barrier (BBB) penetration is limited, delivery systems such as liposomes and nanoparticles may improve exposure. Rg1 reduces inflammation/oxidative stress by inhibiting nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) signaling and reactive ...
