  1. 6. The amyloid-β precursor protein (APP) and its adaptor protein Fe65 : Two key players in Alzheimer’s disease

    Författare :Preeti Menon; Anna-Lena Ström; Thorsten Müller; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer s disease; APP; Fe65; Meprinβ; α-secretase; APP processing; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the abnormal accumulation and aggregation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides within the brain. Generation of Aβ occur when the amyloid-beta precursor protein (APP) is proteolytically processed by β- and then γ-secretase in the amyloidogenic pathway. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Neurodegenerative Biomarkers in Healthy Elderly - with special reference to the preclinical pattern of biological and cognitive markers for Alzheimer’s disease

    Författare :Erik Stomrud; Klinisk minnesforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cerebral blood flow; EEG; phosphorylated tau protein; amyloid beta protein; tau protein; cerebrospinal fluid; biomarkers; preclinical Alzheimer s disease; Alzheimer s disease; MCI; dementia; SPECT; memory; cognition; early diagnosis; control groups;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by tau and amyloid brain pathology. With the gradual degeneration of neurons, cognitive symptoms will arise and the affected individual will eventually develop AD dementia. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Exploring conditional motif-based protein interactions in health and disease

    Författare :Johanna Kliche; Ylva Ivarsson; Ulrich Stelzl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ProP-PD; protein-protein interaction; short linear motif; phosphorylation; disease mutation; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) orchestrate a variety of cellular events, ranging from signal transduction, scaffolding to subcellular localisation. A subclass of PPIs is mediated by short linear motifs, which are short amino acid stretches found in the intrinsically disordered regions of the proteome. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Protein-Protein Interactions in Human Aquaporin Regulation

    Författare :Jennifer Virginia Roche; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Membrane proteins; Human Aquaporins; water channels; Protein-protein interaction; Regulation; AQP2; AQP0; LIP5; CaM;

    Sammanfattning : Water is an essential compoment of every living orgamism and forms a major part of the human body. Regulated water transport is crucial for proper cell functioning and body homeostasis. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Proximity Ligation Assay for High Performance Protein Analysis in Medicine

    Författare :Gucci Jijuan Gu; Ulf Landegren; Thomas Joos; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein; post-translational modification; interactions; protein domain; western blotting; MARK; tau; AD; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biotechnology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : High quality reagents are preconditions for high performance protein analyses. But despite progress in some techniques, e.g. mass spectrometry, there is still a lack of affinity-based detection techniques with enhanced precision, specificity, and sensitivity. LÄS MER
