The Mitochondrial Chaperone Protein TRAP1 Mitigates α-Synuclein Toxicity
(2012)
Overexpression or mutation of α-Synuclein is associated with protein aggregation and interferes with a number of cellular processes, including mitochondrial integrity and function. We used a whole-genome screen in the fruit ...

Phosphorylation of the amyloid β-peptide at Ser26 stabilizes oligomeric assembly and increases neurotoxicity.
(2016-04-01)
Aggregation and toxicity of the amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) are considered as critical events in the initiation and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recent evidence indicated that soluble oligomeric Aβ assemblies exert ...

Idebenone and Resveratrol Extend Lifespan and Improve Motor Function of HtrA2 Knockout Mice
(2011-12-19)
Heterozygous loss-of-function mutation of the human gene for the mitochondrial protease HtrA2 has been associated
with increased risk to develop mitochondrial dysfunction, a process known to contribute to neurodegenerative ...

A myelin gene causative of a catatonia-depression syndrome upon aging
(2012)
Severe mental illnesses have been linked to white matter abnormalities, documented
by postmortem studies. However, cause and effect have remained difficult
to distinguish. CNP (20,30-cyclic nucleotide 30-phosphodiesterase) ...

EV-3, an endogenous human erythropoietin isoform with distinct functional relevance
(2017)
Generation of multiple mRNAs by alternative splicing is well known in the group of cytokines and has recently been reported for the human erythropoietin (EPO) gene. Here, we focus on the alternatively spliced EPO transcript ...

Secondary-ion mass spectrometry of genetically encoded targets.
(2015-05-04)
Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is generally used in imaging the isotopic composition of various materials. It is becoming increasingly popular in biology, especially for investigations of cellular metabolism. ...

Autism beyond diagnostic categories: characterization of autistic phenotypes in schizophrenia
(2015)
Abstract Background Behavioral phenotypical continua from health to disease suggest common underlying mechanisms with quantitative rather than qualitative differences. Until recently, autism spectrum disorders and schizophrenia ...

Candidate Gene Screen in the Red Flour Beetle Tribolium Reveals Six3 as Ancient Regulator of Anterior Median Head and Central Complex Development
(2011-12-22)
Several highly conserved genes play a role in anterior neural plate patterning of vertebrates and in head and brain
patterning of insects. However, head involution in Drosophila has impeded a systematic identification of ...

Dual processing of sulfated steroids in the olfactory system of an anuran amphibian.
(2015)
Chemical communication is widespread in amphibians, but if compared to later diverging tetrapods the available functional data is limited. The existing information on the vomeronasal system of anurans is particularly sparse. ...
