The metalloprotease ADAMTS4 generates N-truncated A4-x species and marks oligodendrocytes as a source of amyloidogenic peptides in Alzheimer's disease

Patrick Fraering, Mitko Dimitrov, Hermeto Gerber, Sandra Lehmann

Brain accumulation and aggregation of amyloid- (A) peptides is a critical step in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Full-length A peptides (mainly A1-40 and A1-42) are produced through sequential proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor pr ...

Application of anti-amyloid beta immunization using encapsulated cell technology in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease

Vanessa Laversenne

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly. AD is characterized by the deposition of two aggregated proteins: Amyloid beta (Aß) and hyperphosphorylated tau. Accumulations of these proteins are thought to be the signature ...

GABA and glutamate moderate beta-amyloid related functional connectivity in cognitively unimpaired old-aged adults

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti

Background: Effects of beta-amyloid accumulation on neuronal function precede the clinical manifestation of Alzheimer's disease (AD) by years and affect distinct cognitive brain networks. As previous studies suggest a link between beta-amyloid and dysregul ...

Crosslinking Allosteric Sites on the Nucleosome Core Particle

Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Designing compounds that bind to the acidic patch of the nucleosome core particle (NCP) is an emerging therapeutic approach that can inhibit the binding of key chromatin factors. Pretreatment of human ovarian carcinoma, A2780, cells with RAPTA-T, an antime ...

Optical projection tomography for whole organ imaging

David Nguyen

In the past twenty years, far-reaching studies of molecular and cellular processes have reached a milestone in their maturation, and the knowledge from these studies was ready to apply at higher organizational levels. At that time, rodent models were long ...

A viral vector based in vivo model of tauopathy to explore therapeutic strategies against tau pathology

Sameer Mohammad Khaleel Nazeeruddin

Tauopathies are neurodegenerative diseases whose common pathological feature is the intraneuronal accumulation of tau aggregates. Tau protein has various roles in the neuron, among which stabilization of microtubules (MT), regulation of synaptic activity o ...

Histidine Targeting Heterobimetallic Ruthenium(II)-Gold(I) Complexes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Daniel Ortiz Trujillo, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Inspired by the preferential, allosteric binding of RAPTA-T and auranofin to the nucleosome core particle, we describe the design and synthesis of a series of heterobimetallic ruthenium(II)-gold(I) complexes with varying spacer lengths ranging from four to ...

Methods of treating amyloid-beta peptide diseases

Johan Auwerx, Laurent Mouchiroud, Vincenzo Sorrentino

The present invention is directed to a method of treating an amyloid-3 peptide disease in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound that enhances mitochondrial proteostasi ...

Zinc and Copper Differentially Modulate Amyloid Precursor Protein Processing by -Secretase and Amyloid- Peptide Production

Patrick Fraering, Mitko Dimitrov, Hermeto Gerber, Guillermo Miguel Garcia Osuna

Recent evidence suggests involvement of biometal homeostasis in the pathological mechanisms in Alzheimer's disease (AD). For example, increased intracellular copper or zinc has been linked to a reduction in secreted levels of the AD-causing amyloid- peptid ...
