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 ...

Familial Alzheimer’s Disease Mutations in PSEN1 Lead to Premature Human Stem Cell Neurogenesis
Cell Reports, 2021 Summary: Mutations in presenilin 1 (PSEN1) or presenilin 2 (PSEN2), the catalytic subunit of γ-secretase, cause familial Alzheimer’s disease (fAD). We hypothesized that mutations in PSEN1 reduce Notch signaling and alter neurogenesis.

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 γ-secretase complex: from structure to function
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014 One of the most critical pathological features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides that form extracellular senile plaques in the brain. Aβ is derived from β-amyloid precursor protein through sequential cleavage by β-

A Pathogenic Variant p.Phe177Val in PSEN1 Causes Early-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease in a Chinese Family
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Familial Alzheimer’s disease (FAD) present as a positive family history of cognitive decline, with early onset and an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. FAD is mainly caused by the mutations in the genes encoding for amyloid precursor protein (APP),

TREM2-dependent effects on microglia in Alzheimer\u27s Disease [PDF]
, 2018 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a late-onset dementia characterized by the deposition of amyloid plaques and formation of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) which lead to neuronal loss and cognitive deficits.

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.

Alzheimer's disease-like alterations in peripheral cells from presenilin-1 transgenic mice [PDF]
, 2006 Many cases of early-onset inherited Alzheimer's disease (AD) are caused by mutations in the presenilin-1 (PS1) gene. Expression of PS1 mutations in cell culture systems and in primary neurons from transgenic mice increases their vulnerability to cell ...
