Enhancing mitochondrial proteostasis reduces amyloid-beta proteotoxicity

Johan Auwerx, Davide D'Amico, Adrian Schmid, Mario Romani, Norman Lionel Moullan, Vincenzo Sorrentino, Hongbo Zhang, Francesca Potenza, Solene Rietsch

Alzheimer's disease is a common and devastating disease characterized by aggregation of the amyloid-beta peptide. However, we know relatively little about the underlying molecular mechanisms or how to treat patients with Alzheimer's disease. Here we provid ...

The mechanism of sirtuin 2-mediated exacerbation of alpha-synuclein toxicity in models of Parkinson disease

Hilal Lashuel, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Magdalena Zweckstetter, Sebastian Kugler

Sirtuin genes have been associated with aging and are known to affect multiple cellular pathways. Sirtuin 2 was previously shown to modulate proteotoxicity associated with age-associated neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer and Parkinson disease ( ...

Modulation of AMPK's activity via genetic tools and food-derived compounds as a novel approach to Parkinson's disease treatment

Wojciech Janusz Bobela

Aging is considered as a major risk factor for Parkinsonâ s disease (PD) and can be defined as a gradual decline in the ability of biological systems to efficiently renew structural and functional components, which may lead to perturbations in energetic h ...

Investigation of cell death mechanisms in human lymphatic endothelial cells undergoing photodynamic therapy

Witold Waldemar Kilarski

Background: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been shown to induce ablation and functional occlusion of tumor-associated lymphatic vessels. However, direct effects of PDT on lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) have not been studied so far. The aim of this stud ...

AMP-activated protein kinase : strategies for activation and downstream target identification

Serge Thanh Son Ducommun

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an evolutionally conserved key sensor of cellular energy status. Under conditions of cellular energy stress, AMPK is activated and will switch off anabolic processes that consume ATP, while activating catabolic proces ...

The effect of the functional interaction between PGC-1α and Parkin on mitochondrial quality control in Parkinson's disease

Lu Zheng

Although several genetic factors have been directly associated to Parkinsonâ s disease (PD), no single pathway has emerged to explain the etiology of this neurodegenerative disease. To further understand the cause of Parkinsonâ s disease (PD), it is ther ...

Dual Targeting of the Autophagic Regulatory Circuitry in Gliomas with Repurposed Drugs Elicits Cell-Lethal Autophagy and Therapeutic Benefit

Douglas Hanahan, Aristea Massaras, Ksenya Shchors

The associations of tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) with reduced incidence of gliomas and elevated autophagy in glioma cells motivated investigation in mouse models of gliomagenesis. First, we established that imipramine, a TCA, increased autophagy and co ...

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response - synchronizing genomes

Johan Auwerx, Virginija Jovaisaite

Maintenance of the mitochondrial proteome is performed primarily by chaperones, which fold and assemble proteins, and by proteases, which degrade excess damaged proteins. Upon various types of mitochondrial stress, triggered genetically or pharmacologicall ...

Alpha-Synuclein as a Mediator in the Interplay between Aging and Parkinson's Disease

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Wojciech Janusz Bobela

Accumulation and misfolding of the alpha-synuclein protein are core mechanisms in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. While the normal function of alpha-synuclein is mainly related to the control of vesicular neurotransmission, its pathogenic effects ...

Involvement of autophagy in hypoxic-excitotoxic neuronal death

Nikita Rudinskiy

Neuronal autophagy is increased in numerous excitotoxic conditions including neonatal cerebral hypoxia-ischemia (HI). However, the role of this HI-induced autophagy remains unclear. To clarify this role we established an in vitro model of excitotoxicity co ...
