Among its many reputed transgressions, amyloid-β is suspected of interfering with synaptic function from the earliest stages of Alzheimer disease...
Finding an easily measurable antecedent marker for Alzheimer disease would be a major development. Might glycogen synthase kinase fit the bill?...
Researchers studying the ubiquitination pathway may be interested in a new technique that can measure ubiquitination—and deubiquitination—in real time...
Various antibiotics have been shown to protect against neurodegenerative diseases, not necessarily through antimicrobial action. Can one of them, rifampicin, prevent the formation of α-synuclein aggregates?...
San Diego: Too Much APP Blocks Transport, Starves Down's Neurons San Diego: HLA and γ-Secretase? A Curiosity Now, But Just You Wait… San Diego: HIV and AD—Save the Body, Lose the Mind? San Diego: Uncouplers Keep Mitochondria Burning Clean—Protect Neu
Surveying the protein profile of a tissue or body fluid by traditional methods has not proven a very efficient way to detect changes in protein levels in neurodegenerative diseases...
Since the discovery that one peptide, amyloid-β, is the major constituent of amyloid plaques, there has been a tremendous focus on the N-terminal end of amyloid-β precursor protein...
Fragile X mental retardation, the most common form of inherited mental impairment, is caused by mutations in the fmr-1 gene, coding for fragile X mental retardation protein...
Imagine being able to turn on and off an individual neuron remotely—without prodding it with electrodes or challenging it with chemicals. Sound like a neuroscientist's dream?...
Defeating the yokozuna, the highest ranked professional sumo wrestlers, is almost impossible. Stopping sumoylation, the modification of proteins with small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMO) may be easier...
The metabolic syndrome—a constellation of cardiovascular and diabetes risk factors—is associated with an increased risk of cognitive decline...
Phosphorylation of the microtubule-associated protein tau may be a good thing because it can speed up microtubule transport, but abnormal phosphorylation...
