Stabilizing the Retromer Complex in a Human Stem Cell Model of Alzheimer's Disease Reduces TAU Phosphorylation Independently of Amyloid Precursor Protein. [PDF]
, 2018 Developing effective therapeutics for complex diseases such as late-onset, sporadic Alzheimer's disease (SAD) is difficult due to genetic and environmental heterogeneity in the human population and the limitations of existing animal models. Here, we used

Proteostasis of organelles in aging and disease
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Cells rely on regulated proteostasis mechanisms to keep their internal compartments functioning properly. When these mechanisms fail, damaged proteins accumulate, disrupting organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, and lysosomes, as well as membraneless organelles, such as stress granules, processing bodies, the ...

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006 Presenilin 1 (PS1) is a multifunctional protein, and its mutations are highly related to familial Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, we examined the effects of PS1 overexpression on neuronal morphology using SH-SY5Y cells.

Identification of transcription factor binding sites in promoter databases [PDF]
, 2011 Transcription factors (TFs) are the proteins which regulates the expression of their target genes either in a positive or negative manner. TFs realize this task by binding to a specific DNA sequence contained in promoter regions, via their DNA binding ...

Mitophagy in skeletal muscle: Impact of ageing, exercise and disuse
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Skeletal muscle plays an important role in whole‐body health, quality of life and regulation of metabolism. The maintenance of a healthy mitochondrial pool is imperative for the preservation of skeletal muscle quality and is mediated through mitochondrial quality control consisting of mitochondrial turnover mediated by a balance between ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Structure and dynamics of γ-secretase with presenilin 2 compared to presenilin 1
RSC Advances, 2019 We constructed a model of presenilin-2 γ-secretase in the membrane and studied it by all-atom molecular dynamics simulations. The study provides the first structural-dynamic comparison of presenilin 1 and 2 relevant to Alzheimer's disease.
