Alzheimer's disease-like alterations in peripheral cells from presenilin-1 transgenic mice.
Many cases of early-onset inherited Alzheimer's disease (AD) are caused by mutations in the presenilin-1 (PS1) gene. Expression of PS1 mutations in cell culture systems and in primary neurons from transgenic mice increases their vulnerability to cell death. Interestingly, enhanced vulnerability to cell death has also been demonstrated for peripheral lymphocytes from AD patients. We now report t...
متن کاملEnrichment improves cognition in AD mice by amyloid-related and unrelated mechanisms.
Lifelong cognitive stimulation is associated with a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but causality is difficult to prove. We therefore sought to investigate the preventative potential of environmental enrichment (EE) using mice expressing both human mutant presenilin-1 and the amyloid precursor protein (PS1/PDAPP). At weaning, mice were placed into either an enriched or standard housing ...
متن کاملSubcellular mechanisms of presenilin-mediated enhancement of calcium signaling.
Mutations in presenilin-1 (PS1), the leading cause of early-onset, autosomal-dominant familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD), enhance calcium signaling mediated by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). To elucidate the subcellular mechanisms underlying this enhancement, we used high resolution line-scanning confocal microscopy to image elementary calcium release events ("puffs") in Xenopus oocytes ex...
متن کاملIdentification of PSEN1 mutations p.M233L and p.R352C in Han Chinese families with early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease.
Early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease (EOFAD) is characterized by the onset of dementia symptoms before 65 years, positive family history, high genetic predisposition, and an autosomal dominant inheritance. We aimed to investigate mutations and to characterize phenotypes in Chinese EOFAD families. Detailed clinical assessments and genetic screening for mutations in the presenilin 1 (PSEN1), ...
متن کاملSwedish mutation within amyloid precursor protein modulates global gene expression towards the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease.
The Swedish mutation (K595N/M596L) of amyloid precursor protein (APP-swe) has been known to increase abnormal cleavage of cellular APP by Beta-secretase (BACE), which causes tau protein hyperphosphorylation and early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, we analyzed the effect of APP-swe in global gene expression using deep transcriptome sequencing technique. We found 283 genes were down-regula...
