Direct association of presenilin‐1 with β‐catenin
Families bearing mutations in the presenilin‐1 (PS1) gene develop Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the mechanism through which PS1 causes AD is unclear. The co‐immunoprecipitation with PS1 in transfected COS‐7 cells indicates that PS1 directly interacts with endogenous β‐catenin, and the interaction requires residues 322–450 of PS1 and 445–676 of β ...

Lighting conditions during incubation can influence embryonic development, post-hatching ontogeny and production efficiency. Previous studies revealed that different light colours differently affect pineal melatonin biosynthesis in embryos and ...

Altered brain energetics induces mitochondrial fission arrest in Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]
Altered brain metabolism is associated with progression of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Mitochondria respond to bioenergetic changes by continuous fission and fusion.

Pathogenic Neurofibromatosis type 1 gene variants in tumors of non‐NF1 patients and role of R1276
Somatic variants of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) gene occur across neoplasms without clinical manifestation of the disease NF1. We identified emerging somatic pathogenic NF1 variants and hotspots, for example, at the arginine finger 1276. Those missense variants provide fundamental information about neurofibromin's role in cancer.

Imaging Alzheimer's genetic risk using diffusion MRI: A systematic review
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is an imaging technique which probes the random motion of water molecules in tissues and has been widely applied to investigate changes in white matter microstructure in Alzheimer’s Disease.

Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease with Anti-Homocysteic acid Antibody [PDF]
Homocysteic acid (HA) may play an important role in Alzhiemer disease (AD) as we previously reported that HA induced accumulation of intraneuronal A[beta]42. In this study, we first analyzed HA levels in a mouse model of AD.

To study the role of Aβ amyloid deposits in the generation of cytoskeletal lesions, we have generated a transgenic mouse line coexpressing in the same neurons a wild-type human tau isoform (0N3R), a mutant form of APP (751SL) and a mutant form of PS1 ...

Neurodegeneration: Potential Causes, Prevention, and Future Treatment Options [PDF]
Here I advance a hypothesis that neurodegeneration is a natural process associated with aging due to the loss of genetic redundancy following a mathematical model R(t) = R0(1-αe(βC+γI+δEt)t), where the calorie intake (C) and ...

Deciphering the mechanism by which the relative Aβ42(43) to total Aβ ratio is regulated is central to understanding Alzheimer disease (AD) etiology; however, the mechanisms underlying changes in the Aβ42(43) ratio caused by familial mutations and γ ...

APP-BP1 inhibits Aβ42 levels by interacting with Presenilin-1
Background The β-amyloid precursor protein (APP) is sequentially cleaved by the β- and then γ-secretase to generate the amyloid β-peptides Aβ40 and Aβ42. Increased Aβ42/Aβ40 ratios trigger amyloid plaque formations in Alzheimer's disease (AD).
