Cognitive Impairment in the 3xTg-AD Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s Disease is Affected by Aβ-ImmunoTherapy and Cognitive Stimulation

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2020
Clinical symptoms of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) include behavioral alterations and cognitive impairment. These functional phenotypes early occur in triple-transgenic (3xTg-AD) mice.

Secondary Forces in Protein Folding.

open access: yesACS Chemical Biology, 2019
A complete inventory of the forces governing protein folding is critical for productive protein modeling, including structure prediction and de novo design, as well as understanding protein misfolding diseases of clinical significance.

The Protein Folding Network [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2004
The conformation space of a 20-residue antiparallel $ $-sheet peptide, sampled by molecular dynamics simulations, is mapped to a network. Conformations are nodes of the network, and the transitions between them are links. The conformation space network describes the significant free energy minima and their dynamic connectivity without projections into

Microbial Composition, Disease Trajectory and Genetic Background in a Slow Onset Model of Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

open access: yesBiomolecules
Slow-onset neurodegenerative disease in a low-expresser 2N4R P301L transgenic (Tg) mouse model is marked by neuroinflammation and by differing patterns of CNS deposition and accumulation of tau conformers, with such heterogeneities present even within ...

Evaluating the Genetic Overlap Between Congenital Heart Disease and Neuroblastoma Risk

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) have elevated neuroblastoma (NB) risk, potentially due to shared neural crest origins. We analyzed rare exonic de novo single‐nucleotide variants in 702 CHD and 454 NB trios from the Neuroblastoma Epidemiology in North America Study, Gabriella Miller Kids First Program, and a published cohort. Seven

Calcineurin inhibitors: status quo and perspectives

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2011
Despite the fact that cyclosporin A (CsA) and tacrolimus (FK506) are very potent drugs in the treatment of serious autoimmune diseases and in the prevention of graft vs.

Implications of exosomes derived from cholesterol-accumulated astrocytes in Alzheimer's disease pathology

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
Amyloid β (Aβ) peptides generated from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) play a critical role in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Sleep is bi-directionally modified by amyloid beta oligomers

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Disrupted sleep is a major feature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), often arising years before symptoms of cognitive decline. Prolonged wakefulness exacerbates the production of amyloid-beta (Aβ) species, a major driver of AD progression, suggesting that ...
