A progressive loss of protein homeostasis is characteristic aging and a driver neurodegeneration. To investigate this process quantitatively, we characterized proteome dynamics during brain in the short-lived vertebrate Nothobranchius furzeri combining transcriptomics proteomics. We detected reduction correlation between mRNA, mainly due to post-transcriptional mechanisms that account for over 40% age-regulated proteins. These changes cause stoichiometry several complexes, including...
The molecular origins of Alzheimer's disease are associated with the aggregation amyloid-β peptide (Aβ). This process is controlled by a complex cellular homeostasis system, which involves variety components, including proteins, metabolites, and lipids. It has been shown in particular that certain components lipid membranes can speed up Aβ aggregation. observation prompts question whether there protective mechanisms to counterbalance this effect. Here, address issue, we investigate role...
The aggregation of the amyloid β (Aβ) peptide is one molecular hallmarks Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although Aβ deposits have mostly been observed extracellularly, various studies also reported presence intracellular assemblies. Because these aggregates might play a role in onset and progression AD, it important to investigate their possible origins at different locations cell along secretory pathway precursor protein, from which derived by proteolytic cleavage. Senile plaques found AD are...

The regulation of mRNA translation at the level synapse is believed to be fundamental in memory and learning cellular level. family cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding (CPEB) proteins emerged as an important RNA-binding protein during development adult neurons. Drosophila Orb2 (homologue mouse CPEB3 neural isoform Aplysia CPEB) has been found involved plasticity-dependent mRNAs associated with long-term memory. presents two main isoforms, Orb2A Orb2B, which form activity-induced...
Abstract The regulation of mRNA translation at synaptic level is believed to be fundamental in memory and learning cellular level. A family RNA binding proteins (RBPs) which emerged important during development adult neurons the one Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation Element Binding (CPEBs). Drosophila Orb2 (homolog vertebrate CPEB2 protein neural isoform Aplysia CPEB) has been found involved plasticity-dependent mRNAs associated Long Term Memory (LTM). presents two main isoforms, Orb2A Orb2B, form...
ABSTRACT The aggregation of the amyloid β peptide (Aβ) is one major molecular hallmarks Alzheimer’s disease. Although Aβ deposits have been mostly observed extracellularly, various studies reported presence also intracellular assemblies. Because these aggregates might play a role in onset and progression disease, it important to investigate their possible origins at different locations cell along secretory pathway precursor protein (APP), from which derived by proteolytic cleavage. Since...
