Objective This study is to investigate the role of gut dysbiosis in triggering inflammation brain and its contribution Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis. Design We analysed microbiota composition 3×Tg mice an age-dependent manner. generated germ-free recolonisation with fecal samples from both patients AD age-matched healthy donors. Results Microbial 16S rRNA sequencing revealed Bacteroides enrichment. found a prominent reduction cerebral amyloid-β plaques neurofibrillary tangles...

The gut-brain axis is bidirectional, and gut microbiota influence brain disorders including Alzheimer's disease (AD). CCAAT/enhancer binding protein β/asparagine endopeptidase (C/EBPβ/AEP) signaling spatiotemporally mediates AD pathologies in the via cleaving both β-amyloid precursor Tau. We show that dysbiosis occurs 5xFAD mice, associated with escalation of C/EBPβ/AEP pathway age. Unlike aged wild-type 3xTg mice accelerate pathology young accompanied by active brain. Antibiotic treatment...

Significance In this study, we used a prodrug strategy to improve the druggability of 7,8-DHF, which mimics physiological actions BDNF in variety animal models but with modest oral bioavailability, by improving its PK profiles. 5XFAD mouse model, demonstrate that optimal R13 increases half-life, and brain exposure 7,8-DHF. Most importantly, robustly displays promising therapeutic efficacy strongly activating TrkB repressing AEP, plays crucial role pathogenesis Alzheimer’s disease (AD),...

Abstract To date, there is no validated fluid biomarker for tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease, with contradictory results from studies evaluating the correlation between phosphorylated CSF PET imaging. Tau protein subjected to proteolytic processing into fragments before being secreted CSF. A recent study suggested that cleavage after amino acid 368 by asparagine endopeptidase (AEP) upregulated disease. We used immunoprecipitation followed mass spectrometric analyses evaluate presence of...

BDNF/TrkB neurotropic pathway, essential for neural synaptic plasticity and survival, is deficient in neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Our previous works support that BDNF diminishes AD pathologies by inhibiting delta-secretase, a crucial age-dependent protease simultaneously cleaves both APP Tau promotes pathologies, via Akt phosphorylation. Small molecular TrkB receptor agonist 7,8-dihydroxyflavone (7,8-DHF) binds activates the its downstream signaling,...

Significance The molecular mechanisms accounting for the environmental risk factor stimulation of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis including traumatic brain injury, diabetes, and chronic cerebral hypoperfusion remain unclear. BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway plays a critical role in neuronal synaptic plasticity survival. Since is reduced during aging AD human brains, we hypothesize that crosstalk between these factors deficiency may mediate pathologies. Our previous studies establish...

Abstract Solid tumors start as a local disease, but some are capable of metastasizing to the lymph nodes and distant organs. The hypoxic microenvironment, which is critical during cancer development, plays key role in regulating progression metastasis. However, molecular mechanisms mediating disseminated cell metastasis remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that C/EBPβ/AEP signaling upregulated breast cancers mediates oxidative stress lung metastasis, inactivation asparagine...

<div>Abstract<p>NF-κB may be a potential therapeutic target for acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) because NF-κB activation is found in primitive human AML blast cells. In this report, we initially discovered that the potent antineoplastic effect of niclosamide, Food and Drug Administration–approved antihelminthic agent, was through inhibition pathway Niclosamide inhibited transcription DNA binding NF-κB. It blocked tumor necrosis factor–induced IκBα phosphorylation, translocation...
