متن کاملAltered Processing of Amyloid Precursor Protein in Cells Undergoing Apoptosis
Altered proteolysis of amyloid precursor protein is an important determinant of pathology development in Alzheimer's disease. Here, we describe the detection of two novel fragments of amyloid precursor protein in H4 neuroglioma cells undergoing apoptosis. Immunoreactivity of these 25-35 kDa fragments to two different amyloid precursor protein antibodies suggests that they contain the amyloid-β ...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Effects on Amyloid Precursor Protein Processing in Hippocampal Cells
Introduction: Iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe2O3-NPs) are small magnetic particles that widely used in different aspects of biology and medicine in modern life. Fe2O3-NP accumulated in the living cells due to absence of active system to excrete the iron ions so damages cellular organelles by highly reactivity. Method: Herein cytotoxic effects of Fe2O3-NP with 50 nm size were investigated on prima...
متن کاملLocus ceruleus degeneration promotes Alzheimer pathogenesis in amyloid precursor protein 23 transgenic mice.
Locus ceruleus (LC) degeneration and loss of cortical noradrenergic innervation occur early in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although this has been known for several decades, the contribution of LC degeneration to AD pathogenesis remains unclear. We induced LC degeneration with N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-ethyl-bromo-benzylamine (dsp4) in amyloid precursor protein 23 (APP23) transgenic mice with a low amyl...
متن کاملActivation of neuronal caspase-3 by intracellular accumulation of wild-type Alzheimer amyloid precursor protein.
Forced overexpression of wild-type Alzheimer amyloid precursor protein (APP) causes postmitotic neurons to degenerate. Caspase-3 (CPP32) is a principal cell death protease involved in neuronal apoptosis during physiological development and under pathological conditions. Here, we investigated whether APP overexpression activates caspase-3 in human postmitotic neurons using adenovirus-mediated ge...
