Clioquinol-induced ordered conformational behavior in alpha-synuclein: promising relevance for therapeutic approach to Parkinson's disease
Parkinson?¦s disease (PD) is a devastating and an intricate complex neurological disorder that results from the progressive degeneration of nerve cells in Substantia nigra that controls movement. The pathological hallmark of PD is the formation of insoluble protein aggregates known as lewey bodies. Alpha-synuclein is the major constituent of these fibrillar structures. Alpha-synuclein a 140 ami...
متن کاملAlpha-synuclein induced apoptosis and proliferation interacted with CD44 in human lymphocytes
Human ?-synuclein is a 140 amino acid protein with little or no secondary structure. The ?-synuclein is expressed at high levels in the brain and enriched in neural synaptic terminals but its physiological function remains largely unknown. More recently, ?-synuclein has been shown to be one of the principal componets of Lewy bodies, neuronal inclusions that are found in diverse human neurodegen...

متن کاملPrion-like seeding and nucleation of intracellular amyloid-β
Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain tissue can act as a seed to accelerate aggregation of amyloid-β (Aβ) into plaques in AD transgenic mice. Aβ seeds have been hypothesized to accelerate plaque formation in a prion-like manner of templated seeding and intercellular propagation. However, the structure(s) and location(s) of the Aβ seeds remain unknown. Moreover, in contrast to tau and α-synuclein, an ...
متن کاملToxic Oligomeric Alpha-Synuclein Variants Present in Human Parkinson’s Disease Brains Are Differentially Generated in Mammalian Cell Models
Misfolding and aggregation of α-synuclein into toxic soluble oligomeric α-synuclein aggregates has been strongly correlated with the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Here, we show that two different morphologically distinct oligomeric α-synuclein aggregates are present in human post-mortem PD brain tissue and are responsible for the bulk of α-synuclein induced toxicity in brain homogen...
