Redox Regulation and Oxidative Stress in Health and Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targeting
Reactive species serve crucial roles which are tightly regulated in both physiological as well as disease states. At physiological levels, these species are integral to redox signaling, while uncontrolled redox promotes disease pathology. This review examines the dysregulation of these processes.

Identification of Ubiquilin, a Novel Presenilin Interactor That Increases Presenilin Protein Accumulation [PDF]
Mutations in the highly homologous presenilin genes encoding presenilin-1 and presenilin-2 (PS1 and PS2) are linked to early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, apart from a role in early development, neither the normal function of the presenilins nor the mechanisms by which mutant proteins cause AD are well understood.

γ-secretase, an intramembrane-cleaving aspartyl protease is involved in the cleavage of a large number of intramembrane proteins. The most prominent substrate is the amyloid precursor protein, whose proteolytic processing leads to the production of ...

The most commonly accepted hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the amyloid hypothesis caused due to formation of accumulation of Aβ42 isoform, which leads to neurodegeneration.

Impact of aging : sporadic, and genetic risk factors on vulnerability to apoptosis in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
The identification of specific genetic (presenilin-1 [PS1] and amyloid precursor protein [APP] mutations) and environmental factors responsible for Alzheimer's disease (AD) has revealed evidence for a shared pathway of neuronal death.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Accurate clinical diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases remains challenging, particularly when individuals have mixed pathologies. We implemented the generalizable protein‐based neurodegenerative disease artificial intelligence (GPND‐AI) classifier using the NUcleic acid‐Linked Immuno‐Sandwich Assay (NULISA) central nervous ...

Gains and losses on the road to understanding Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder and the most common cause for dementia, which affects approximately 120 thousand people in Switzerland and 35 million worldwide.
