Ginsenoside Rg1 attenuates oligomeric Aβ(1-42)-induced mitochondrial dysfunction.
Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the major pathological changes seen in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Amyloid beta-peptide (Aβ), a neurotoxic peptide, accumulates in the brain of AD subjects and mediates mitochondrial and neuronal stress. Therefore, protecting mitochondrion from Aβ-induced toxicity holds potential benefits for halting and treating and perhaps preventing AD. Here, we report that ...
متن کاملWNT5A Signaling Contributes to Aβ-Induced Neuroinflammation and Neurotoxicity
Neurodegenration is a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the underlying molecular mechanism remains elusive. Here, we present evidence that reveals a crucial role of Wnt5a signaling in this process. We showed that Wnt5a and its receptor Frizzled-5 (Fz5) were up-regulated in the AD mouse brain, and that beta-amyloid peptide (Aβ), a major constituent of amyloid plaques, stimul...
متن کاملAstrocyte-originated ATP protects Aβ(1-42)-induced impairment of synaptic plasticity.
Activated microglia and reactive astrocytes are commonly found in and around the senile plaque, which is the central pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. Astrocytes respond to neuronal activity through the release of gliotransmitters such as glutamate, D-serine, and ATP. However, it is largely unknown whether and how gliotransmitters affect neuronal functions. In this study, we explore...
متن کاملمدل ساز ی به روش شبیه سازی دینامیک مولکولی مونومر Aβ (1-42) و Aβ (1-40) ، به منظور مقایسه نقش آنها در ایجاد بیماری آلزایمر
سابقه و هدف: مطالعه های آسیبشناختی، تشکیل پلاکهای فیبری و تودههای تجمع یافته پپتید آمیلوئید بتا (Aβ) را یکی از دلایل بیماری آلزایمر پیشنهاد کردهاند. از آنجا که این بیماری وابسته به ساختار فضایی پروتئین است در این مقاله به روش شبیه سازی دینامیک مولکولی مراحل آغازین تغییرهای کنفورماسیون دو مونومر از Aβ، Aβ (1-42) و Aβ (1-40) مورد بررسی قرار میگیرد. مواد و روش ها: ساختار NMR دو پپتید Aβ (...
متن کاملAβ(39-42) modulates Aβ oligomerization but not fibril formation.
Recently, certain C-terminal fragments (CTFs) of Aβ42 have been shown to be effective inhibitors of Aβ42 toxicity. Here, we examine the interactions between the shortest CTF in the original series, Aβ(39-42), and full-length Aβ. Mass spectrometry results indicate that Aβ(39-42) binds directly to Aβ monomers and to the n = 2, 4, and 6 oligomers. The Aβ42:Aβ(39-42) complex is further probed using...
