Cellular maintenance of nuclear protein homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2013
The accumulation and aggregation of misfolded proteins is the primary hallmark for more than 45 human degenerative diseases. These devastating disorders include Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Over 15 degenerative diseases are associated with the aggregation of misfolded proteins specifically in the nucleus of

A key role for E-cadherin in intestinal homeostasis and Paneth cell maturation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
E-cadherin is a major component of adherens junctions. Impaired expression of E-cadherin in the small intestine and colon has been linked to a disturbed intestinal homeostasis and barrier function.

Protein Homeostasis at the Plasma Membrane

open access: yesPhysiology, 2014
The plasma membrane (PM) and endocytic protein quality control (QC) in conjunction with the endosomal sorting machinery either repairs or targets conformationally damaged membrane proteins for lysosomal/vacuolar degradation. Here, we provide an overview of emerging aspects of the underlying mechanisms of PM QC that fulfill a critical role in preserving

Protein homeostasis networks in physiology and disease [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2011
Although most text books of biochemistry describe the process of protein folding to a three dimensional native state as an intrinsic property of the primary sequence, it is becoming increasingly clear that this process can go wrong in an almost infinite number of ways.

Endophilin-A Deficiency Induces the Foxo3a-Fbxo32 Network in the Brain and Causes Dysregulation of Autophagy and the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Endophilin-A, a well-characterized endocytic adaptor essential for synaptic vesicle recycling, has recently been linked to neurodegeneration.

Low-carbohydrate diets affect energy balance and fuel homeostasis differentially in lean and obese rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In parallel with increased prevalence of overweight people in affluent societies are individuals trying to lose weight, often using low-carbohydrate diets.

Aneuploidy: implications for protein homeostasis and disease [PDF]

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2014
It has long been appreciated that aneuploidy – in which cells possess a karyotype that is not a multiple of the haploid complement – has a substantial impact on human health, but its effects at the subcellular level have only recently become a focus of investigation.

Extracellular matrix fragmentation in young, healthy cartilaginous tissues [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Cells & Materials, 2018
Although the composition and structure of cartilaginous tissues is complex, collagen II fibrils and aggrecan are the most abundant assemblies in both articular cartilage (AC) and the nucleus pulposus (NP) of the intervertebral disc (IVD).

Proteome-wide Changes in Protein Turnover Rates in C. elegans Models of Longevity and Age-Related Disease

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
The balance between protein synthesis and protein breakdown is a major determinant of protein homeostasis, and loss of protein homeostasis is one of the hallmarks of aging.
