Hyperammonemia and proteostasis in cirrhosis [PDF]
Skeletal muscle loss or sarcopenia is a frequent complication of cirrhosis that adversely affects clinical outcomes. As skeletal muscle is the largest store of proteins in the body, proteostasis or protein homeostasis is required for maintenance of muscle mass. This review will focus on disordered skeletal muscle proteostasis in liver disease.Increased

A Chaperome Subnetwork Safeguards Proteostasis in Aging and Neurodegenerative Disease
Chaperones are central to the proteostasis network (PN) and safeguard the proteome from misfolding, aggregation, and proteotoxicity. We categorized the human chaperome of 332 genes into network communities using function, localization, interactome, and ...

Peroxisomal Proteostasis Involves a Lon Family Protein That Functions as Protease and Chaperone [PDF]
Proteins are subject to continuous quality control for optimal proteostasis. The knowledge of peroxisome quality control systems is still in its infancy. Here we show that peroxisomes contain a member of the Lon family of proteases (Pln).

Regulation of the proteostasis network by the neuronal system
The protein homeostasis (proteostasis) network is a nexus of molecular mechanisms that act in concert to maintain the integrity of the proteome and ensure proper cellular and organismal functionality.

Control of Protein Homeostasis in the Early Secretory Pathway: Current Status and Challenges
: Discrimination between properly folded proteins and those that do not reach this state is necessary for cells to achieve functionality. Eukaryotic cells have evolved several mechanisms to ensure secretory protein quality control, which allows ...

Proteostasis in T cell aging [PDF]
Aging leads to a decline in immune cell function, which leaves the organism vulnerable to infections and age-related multimorbidities. One major player of the adaptive immune response are T cells, and recent studies argue for a major role of disturbed ...

Synaptic proteostasis in Parkinson's disease
There are over 7 million people worldwide suffering from Parkinson's disease, and this number will double in the next decade. Causative mutations and risk variants in >20 genes that predominantly act at synapses have been linked to Parkinson's disease. Synaptic defects precede neuronal death.

Changes in Glutathione Redox Potential Are Linked to Aβ42-Induced Neurotoxicity
Summary: Glutathione is the major low-molecular weight thiol of eukaryotic cells. It is central to one of the two major NADPH-dependent reducing systems and is likely to play a role in combating oxidative stress, a process suggested to play a key role in
