Impact of aging : sporadic, and genetic risk factors on vulnerability to apoptosis in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

, 2003
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.

Alphafuser: a parsimonious approach to predicting higher‐order protein complexes

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 421-433, May 2026.
Alphafuser is a structure‐prediction pipeline that integrates experimental interaction data with AlphaFold‐based modeling to systematically assemble multiprotein complexes in a computationally efficient manner. By implementing an ipTM‐based pruning algorithm and validating against known structures and experimental assays, Alphafuser enables the ...

Functional γ-secretase complex assembly in Golgi/trans-Golgi network: interactions among presenilin, nicastrin, Aph1, Pen-2, and γ-secretase substrates

Neurobiology of Disease, 2003
γ-Secretase is a proteolytic complex whose substrates include Notch, β-amyloid precursor protein (APP), and several other type I transmembrane proteins. Presenilin (PS) and nicastrin are known components of this high-molecular-weight complex, and recent ...

Effect of Non-Coding RNA on Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing of Alzheimer Disease [PDF]

, 2010
A large amount of hidden biological information is contained in the human genome, which is not expressed or revealed in the form of proteins; the usual end product form of gene expression.

Prion protein interacts with bace1 and differentially regulates its activity towards wild type and swedish mutant amyloid precursor protein [PDF]

, 2011
In Alzheimer disease amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides derived from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) accumulate in the brain. Cleavage of APP by the β-secretase BACE1 is the rate-limiting step in the production of Aβ.

Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Pancreatic β Cell Function: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targets for Diabetes

Journal of Diabetes, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2026.
This review highlights mitochondrial dysfunction as a central driver of pancreatic β cell failure in diabetes, caused by disrupted mitochondrial quality control (MQC), oxidative stress, and impaired organelle communication. Emerging therapies, such as DRAK2 inhibitors and metabolic reprogramming agents, show promise in restoring β cell function by ...

Altered brain energetics induces mitochondrial fission arrest in Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]

, 2016
Altered brain metabolism is associated with progression of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Mitochondria respond to bioenergetic changes by continuous fission and fusion.

SORBS2: A Molecular Nexus in Multisystem Diseases Through Scaffold‐Mediated Regulation

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Sorbin and SH3 Domain Containing 2 (SORBS2), a multifunctional scaffold protein harbouring Sorbin homology (SoHo) and Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, serves as a molecular hub in human diseases by integrating cytoskeletal remodelling, signal transduction and RNA metabolic regulation. This study systematically analyses SORBS2's molecular features,

Generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell line from a familial Alzheimer’s disease patient carrying missense mutations in PSEN1 and MAPT genes

Stem Cell Research
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), pathologically characterized by misfolding and accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) and hyperphosphorylated tau, is the leading cause of neurodegenerative dementia, accounting for 60–80 % of cases. The familial form of AD is caused

Pathogenic Neurofibromatosis type 1 gene variants in tumors of non‐NF1 patients and role of R1276

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 803-813, April 2026.
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.
