Li-Huei Tsai on FUS is phosphorylated by DNA-PK and accumulates in the cytoplasm after DNA damage.
COMMENT This is an interesting paper. I think the DNA damage response the authors report happens in a transient process, but prolonged activation of this DNA damage response may do more harm to cells. I like the aspect of phosphorylation of FAK by DNA-PK. We prev
Mary Savage on Scant α-Secretase Compensation for BACE Inhibition in Monkeys
COMMENT The primary expected therapeutic mechanism of action of BACE inhibition is to lower toxic Aβ burden in the CNS via inhibition of its synthesis from APP. This is founded on the strongest human genetic evidence possible, including identification of both ris
Jurgen Claassen on While You Were Sleeping—Synapses Forged, Amyloid Purged
COMMENT David Holtzman and Andrew Lim raise important points for future studies on this topic. Some further thoughts for those who would like to engage in a follow-up study: Despite the overnight stay in a hospital-like environment (clinical research lab) and the
Ilya Bezprozvanny on ER-mitochondria associations are regulated by the VAPB-PTPIP51 interaction and are disrupted by ALS/FTD-associated TDP-43.
COMMENT The finding of a VAPB-PTPIP51 interaction supporting the ER-mitochondria association is interesting and convincing. The effects of TDP-43 overexpression suggest a potential role for TDP-43 in modulating this ER-mitochondrial association and intracellular
Scant α-Secretase Compensation for BACE Inhibition in Monkeys
RESEARCH NEWS 2014-06-18 Research News Researchers hope they can treat or prevent Alzheimer's by blocking β-secretase (BACE), the enzyme that kick-starts production of Aβ from amyloid precursor protein. It is commonly believed that the non-amyloidogenic α-secretase takes ove
