therapeutic potential of glucose regulated protein 78 in cancer
endoplasmic reticulum has a critical role in the synthesis and folding of secretory and membrane proteins. high accumulation of proteins in er activates the unfolded protein response and glucose regulated protein 78 or gpr78 plays an essential role in this pathway. unfolded protein response is activated in cancerous cells due to their adverse condition to survive and it has been shown that grp...
متن کاملTiO2 Nanoparticles as Potential Promoting Agents of Fibrillation of α-Synuclein, a Parkinson’s Disease-Related Protein
Background: In recent years, nanomaterials have been widely used in large quantities which make people bemore frequently exposed to the chemically synthesized nanoparticles (NPs). When NPs are introduced intoan organism, they may interact with a variety of cellular components with yet largely unknown pathologicalconsequences.Objective: I...
متن کاملAlpha-synuclein phosphorylation controls neurotoxicity and inclusion formation in a Drosophila model of Parkinson disease.
Alpha-synuclein is phosphorylated at serine 129 (Ser129) in intracellular protein aggregates called Lewy bodies. These inclusion bodies are the characteristic pathologic lesions of Parkinson disease. Here we define the role of phosphorylation of Ser129 in alpha-synuclein toxicity and inclusion formation using a Drosophila model of Parkinson disease. Mutation of Ser129 to alanine to prevent phos...
متن کاملNew Roles of Glycosaminoglycans in α-Synuclein Aggregation in a Cellular Model of Parkinson Disease
The causes of Parkinson disease (PD) remain mysterious, although some evidence supports mitochondrial dysfunctions and α-synuclein accumulation in Lewy bodies as major events. The abnormal accumulation of α-synuclein has been associated with a deficiency in the ubiquitin-proteasome system and the autophagy-lysosomal pathway. Cathepsin D (cathD), the major lysosomal protease responsible of α-syn...
متن کاملInteractions between Tau and α-synuclein augment neurotoxicity in a Drosophila model of Parkinson's disease.
Clinical and pathological studies have suggested considerable overlap between tauopathies and synucleinopathies. Several genome-wide association studies have identified alpha-Synuclein (SNCA) and Tau (MAPT) polymorphisms as common risk factors for sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the mechanisms by which subtle variations in the expression of wild-type SNCA and MAPT influence risk for...
