Minocycline blocks c-terminal fragments of amyloid precursor protein-induced neurotoxicity by inhibition of cytochrome c release and caspase-12 activation
Minocycline is a second-generation tetracycline that effectively crosses the blood-brain barrier. It has remarkable neuroprotective qualities in models of cerebral ischaemia, traumatic brain injury, Huntington’s and Parkinson’s diseases. However, there is no evidence about neuroprotective effects of minocycline on AD. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized neurop...

متن کاملPreparation and biochemical characterisation of nanoconjugates of functionalized carbon nanotubes and cytochrome c
Objective(s): The present work deals with the preparation of nanobioconjugates based on the immobilization of cytochrome c (cyt c) on functionalized multi-wall carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs). The effect of the nanosupport and the immobilization procedure on the biochemical and structural characteristics of the immobilized protein was investigated. Methods: </strong...
متن کاملThe Effect of Cattle Seminal Plasma Crude Protein on the Cryopreservation of Goat Semen
This study aimed to improve the quality of cryopreserved goat semen for artificial insemination by the addition of cattle seminal plasma crude protein. Semen collected from cattle and centrifuged to obtain seminal plasma. Then it was purified to obtain the crude protein. The diluent used in this study was milk-yolk. There were three groups, control group without crude protein (P0), the addition...
متن کاملMapping protein electron transfer pathways with QM/MM methods.
Mixed quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) methods offer a valuable computational tool for understanding the electron transfer pathway in protein-substrate interactions and protein-protein complexes. These hybrid methods are capable of solving the Schrödinger equation on a small subset of the protein, the quantum region, describing its electronic structure under the polarization effect...
