Role of FK506 binding protein 51 in central nervous system diseases
FK506-binding protein 51 (FKBP51) is a pivotal molecular chaperone and scaffolding protein that integrates and modulates multiple signaling pathways—including those involving HSP90, the glucocorticoid receptor, AKT, and NF-κB—through its FK1, FK2, and ...

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by cognitive impairment and memory loss. Amyloid β1-42 (Aβ) and hyper-phosphorylation of microtubule-associated protein tau have been considered as major histological features in AD.

Neurodegenerative Disease Tauopathies
Tauopathies are a diverse group of progressive and fatal neurodegenerative diseases characterized by aberrant tau inclusions in the central nervous system. Tau protein forms pathologic fibrillar aggregates that are typically closely associated with neuronal cell death, leading to varied clinical phenotypes including dementia, movement disorders, and ...

E3 ligase Praja1 mediates ubiquitination and degradation of microtubule‐associated protein tau
E3 ligase Praja1, but not its paralogue Praja2, recognizes and ubiquitinates tau protein for proteasomal degradation. This newly identified function of Praja1‐mediated tau degradation suggests its role in protein quality control, which may provide insights into the pathogenesis of tauopathies.

Co‐localization of tau and TDP‐43 after extracellular vesicle delivery to cells
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from donor cells transfected with EGFP–2N4R‐tau or mCherry‐wtTDP‐43 were taken up by recipient cells, leading to cytosolic co‐localization of tau and TDP‐43. Molecular modeling revealed that tau and TDP‐43 directly interact through hydrogen bonding, suggesting a mechanistic link underlying their co‐pathology ...

A Novel Model of Mixed Vascular Dementia Incorporating Hypertension in a Rat Model of Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mixed dementia (MxD) comprise the majority of dementia cases in the growing global aging population. MxD describes the coexistence of AD pathology with vascular pathology, including cerebral small vessel disease (SVD ...

Proteostasis of organelles in aging and disease
Cells rely on regulated proteostasis mechanisms to keep their internal compartments functioning properly. When these mechanisms fail, damaged proteins accumulate, disrupting organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, and lysosomes, as well as membraneless organelles, such as stress granules, processing bodies, the ...
