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 ...

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.

Folding nuclei in proteins [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2001
When a protein folds or unfolds, it passes through many half‐folded microstates. Only a few of them can accumulate and be seen experimentally, and this happens only when the folding (or unfolding) occurs far from the point of thermodynamic equilibrium between the native and denatured states.

Cotranslational folding of proteins on the ribosome.

open access: yes, 2020
Many proteins in the cell fold cotranslationally within the restricted space of the polypeptide exit tunnel or at the surface of the ribosome. A growing body of evidence suggests that the ribosome can alter the folding trajectory in many different ways ...

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.

A conformational RNA zipper promotes intron ejection during non-conventional XBP1 mRNA splicing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The kinase/endonuclease IRE1 is the most conserved signal transducer of the unfolded protein response (UPR), an intracellular signaling network that monitors and regulates the protein folding capacity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

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.

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 ...

Disruption of SETD3‐mediated histidine‐73 methylation by the BWCFF‐associated β‐actin G74S mutation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The β‐actin G74S mutation causes altered interaction of actin with SETD3, reducing histidine‐73 methylation efficiency and forming two distinct actin variants. The variable ratio of these variants across cell types and developmental stages contributes to tissue‐specific phenotypical changes. This imbalance may impair actin dynamics and mechanosensitive
