The processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is one key events contributing to Alzheimer's disease (AD) etiology. Canonical cleavages by β- and γ-secretases lead Aβ production which accumulate in plaques. Recently, matrix metalloprotease MT5-MMP, referred as η-secretase, has been identified a novel APP cleaving enzyme producing transmembrane fragment, ηCTF that undergoes subsequent α- β-secretases yielding Aηα Aηβ peptides, respectively. functions contributions its related fragments...

The amyloid cascade hypothesis, which proposes a prominent role for full-length β peptides in Alzheimer's disease, is currently being questioned. In addition to peptide, several N-terminally truncated fragments of peptide could well contribute disease setting and/or progression. Among them, pyroGlu3–amyloid appears be one the main components early anatomical lesions disease–affected brains. Little known about proteolytic activities that account N-terminal truncations β, but they appear as...

Abstract One of the main components senile plaques in Alzheimer’s disease (AD)-affected brain is Aβ peptide species harboring a pyroglutamate at position three pE3-Aβ. Several studies indicated that pE3-Aβ toxic, prone to aggregation and serves as seed aggregation. The cyclisation glutamate residue produced by glutaminyl cyclase, pharmacological genetic reductions which significantly alleviate AD-related anatomical lesions cognitive defects mice models. 3 requires prior removal N-terminal...

Despite the ever-increasing role of pesticides in modern agriculture, their deleterious effects are still underexplored. Here we examine effect A6, a pesticide derived from naturally-occurring α-terthienyl, and structurally related to endocrine disrupting anilinopyrimidines, on living zebrafish larvae. We show that both A6 an anilinopyrimidine, cyprodinyl, decrease larval survival affect central neurons at micromolar concentrations. Focusing superficial easily observable sensory system,...

The etiology of Alzheimer's disease is far from being completely understood. Genetic approaches have helped in this matter and greatly supported the view that β-amyloid precursor protein (βAPP) could be at center gravity pathology. Thus, mutations responsible for autosomal dominant aggressive forms (AD) are all harbored by either βAPP itself or its cleaving enzyme presenilins 1/2 referred to as γ-secretase. It was therefore convincing note fully independent gene products harboring AD-linked...

Background: Mitochondrial structure and function alterations are key pathological features in Alzheimer disease (AD) brains. The adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) its downstream effector Unc-51 like autophagy activating 1 (ULK1) represent a node controlling mitochondria health, the alteration of which likely contribute to AD development. Methods: We designed this study investigate AMPK-ULK1 activation state post-mortem human sporadic brains, 3xTgAD mice that...
