TRIM28 regulates the nuclear accumulation and toxicity of both alpha-synuclein and tau

eLife, 2016
Several neurodegenerative diseases are driven by the toxic gain-of-function of specific proteins within the brain. Elevated levels of alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) appear to drive neurotoxicity in Parkinson's disease (PD); neuronal accumulation of tau is a ...

Alzheimer disease and tau protein

Rinsho Shinkeigaku, 2012
To elucidate involvement of tau protein in neurodegenerative processes in Alzheimer disease and related disorders, self-assembly process and degradative process of tau protein were examined. To understand the mechanisms of the aggregation, binding affinity of tau protein to 14-3-3 protein, which converts tau to a filamentous or aggregated form.

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

α-Synuclein Aggregated with Tau and β-Amyloid in Human Platelets from Healthy Subjects: Correlation with Physical Exercise

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2018
The loss of protein homeostasis that has been associated with aging leads to altered levels and conformational instability of proteins, which tend to form toxic aggregates.

Alterations in iron content, iron-regulatory proteins and behaviour without tau pathology at one year following repetitive mild traumatic brain injury

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2023
Repetitive mild traumatic brain injury (r-mTBI) has increasingly become recognised as a risk factor for the development of neurodegenerative diseases, many of which are characterised by tau pathology, metal dyshomeostasis and behavioural impairments.

Tau binding protein CAPON induces tau aggregation and neurodegeneration [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2019
AbstractTo understand the molecular processes that link Aβ amyloidosis, tauopathy and neurodegeneration, we screened for tau-interacting proteins by immunoprecipitation/LC-MS. We identified the carboxy-terminal PDZ ligand of nNOS (CAPON) as a novel tau-binding protein.

Onasemnogene Abeparvovec in Type I Spinal Muscular Atrophy: 24‐Month Follow‐Up From the Italian Registry

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Onasemnogene abeparvovec (OA) is an AAV9‐based gene therapy for spinal muscular atrophy type I (SMA I). Real‐world outcomes show increased response variability compared to clinical trials, and follow‐up data beyond 12–18 months are limited.

Neurofilaments and tau proteins in cerebrospinal fluid and serum in dementias and neuroinflammation

Biomedical Papers, 2017
Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic potential of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum levels of neurocytoskeletal proteins and their ratios for the diagnosis of dementias and to assess the differences in neurocytoskeletal proteins ...

Is Tau a Prion-Like Protein?

Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, 2014
It has been over a quarter century since the discovery in the mid-1980s that the paired helical filaments of neurofibrillary tangles were made up of abnormally hyperphosphorylated tau. A decade earlier tau had been first isolated from porcine brain as a heat stable protein essential for microtubule assembly.

SPG4 and Dementia: Expanding the Clinical Spectrum

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of disorders characterized by progressive spasticity and lower limb weakness, with mutations in SPG4/SPAST being the most common cause. Detailed studies and clinical and molecular comparisons across different populations are missing.
