Upregulation of ST3GAL5 predicts suppression of malignant biological behavior in bladder cancer

open access: yesUroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bladder cancer (BLCA) is the most prevalent malignancy in the urinary tract system, while ST3GAL5 is a protein‐coding gene that catalyzes the formation of ganglioside monosialodihexosylganglioside 3 (GM3) synthase. GM3 synthase has been reported to significantly influence the malignant process of various cancers.

Reversible symptoms and clearance of mutant prion protein in an inducible model of a genetic prion disease in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2014
Prion diseases are progressive disorders that affect the central nervous system leading to memory loss, personality changes, ataxia and neurodegeneration.

Lessons learned and lingering uncertainties after seven years of chronic wasting disease management in Norway

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is well known among cervids in North America. Nevertheless, management faced different types and degrees of uncertainty when CWD was first detected in reindeer Rangifer tarandus in Nordfjella, Norway in 2016. We present a timeline of the efforts to control CWD, and identify how the process, measurement, environmental, and ...

Targeted Mutagenesis of the Oligopeptide Repeat Domain of the Yeast Prion Sup35 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The formation of prions in the baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is determined by amino acid composition rather than the primary sequence of amino acids.

Human and Mouse Alzheimer's Seeds Differentially Affect Amyloid Deposition and Microglia‐Dependent Plaque Response in Aged Mice

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
This study shows that human and mouse brains contain a different pool of strains that differentially affect the formation of Aβ and tau aggregates. Moreover, the murine seeds trigger an unresponsiveness microglial state, which causes the loss of plaque microglial coverage and affects the formation of amyloid plaques, leading to more severe neuritic ...

Herpes simplex virus‐1 infection alters microtubule‐associated protein Tau splicing and promotes Tau pathology in neural models of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
HSV‐1 infection alters MAPT splicing and promotes Tau pathology in neural models of Alzheimer's disease. HSV‐1 infection in brain organoids and neuronal models increase 4R‐MAPT splicing and Tau hyperphosphorylation. HSV‐1 ICP27 is both necessary and sufficient for inducing these changes highlighting the potential role of HSV‐1 in Alzheimer's disease ...

Human amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/motor neuron disease: The disease‐associated microglial pathway is upregulated while APOE genotype governs risk and survival

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
ALS/MND‐related inflammation is investigated in the motor cortex and spinal cord by both transcriptomics and immunohistochemistry. This reveals greater inflammation in the spinal cord and highlights the disease‐associated microglial (DAM) phenotype characterized by ApoE, TREM2, and TYROBP.
