E2-25K/Hip-2 regulates caspase-12 in ER stress–mediated Aβ neurotoxicity
Amyloid-beta (Abeta) neurotoxicity is believed to contribute to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Previously we found that E2-25K/Hip-2, an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, mediates Abeta neurotoxicity. Here, we report that E2-25K/Hip-2 modulates caspase-12 activity via the ubiquitin/proteasome system. Levels of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident caspase-12 are strongly up-regulate...
متن کاملBv8/prokineticin 2 is involved in Aβ-induced neurotoxicity
Bv8/Prokineticin 2 (PROK2) is a bioactive peptide initially discovered as a regulator of gastrointestinal motility. Among multiple biological roles demonstrated for PROK2, it was recently established that PROK2 is an insult-inducible endangering mediator for cerebral damage. Aim of the present study was to evaluate the PROK2 and its receptors' potential involvement in amyloid beta (Aβ) neurotox...
متن کاملPolyglutamine aggregates stimulate ER stress signals and caspase-12 activation.
Accumulation of unfolded and malfolded proteins causes endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, stimulating unfolded protein response (UPR) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation and activating caspase-12 located on the ER. Little is known about the relationship between the ER stress and polyglutamine [poly(Q)] aggregates. Poly(Q)72 repeats [poly(Q)(72)] induced the stimulation of ER stress sig...
متن کاملReversibility of Aβ oligomer neurotoxicity
Patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most common neurodegenerative dementia disorder, chiefly suffer from impairment of memory and other cognitive functions. AD is neuropathologically characterized by senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, which are composed of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) and phosphorylated tau proteins, respectively. Recently, a new concept has emerged: that soluble oli...
متن کاملThe neuritogenic and neuroprotective potential of senegenin against Aβ-induced neurotoxicity in PC 12 cells
BACKGROUND Improved therapeutics aimed at ameliorating the devastating effects of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), are pertinent to help attenuate their growing prevalence worldwide. One promising avenue for such therapeutics lies in botanical medicines that have been efficaciously employed in the likes of traditional medicine doctrines for millennium. Integral to t...
