    Citation: Molecular Neurodegeneration 2006 1:9
  3. Aberrant hyperphosphorylation of tau protein has been implicated in a variety of neurodegenerative disorders. Although a number of protein kinases have been shown to phosphorylate tau in vitro and in vivo, the mo...

    Citation: Molecular Neurodegeneration 2006 1:7
  4. The microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) is a pathological component of several neurodegenerative diseases and clinical dementias. Here, we have investigated the effects of a series of commercially availa...

  5. The amyloid precursor protein (APP) takes a central position in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis: APP processing generates the β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides, which are deposited as the amyloid plaques in brains...

    Authors: Hui Zheng and Edward H Koo
    Citation: Molecular Neurodegeneration 2006 1:5
  6. Mutations in PSEN1 and PSEN2 genes account for the majority of cases of early-onset familial Alzheimer disease. Since the first prediction of a genetic link between PSEN1 and PSEN2 with Alzheimer's disease, many ...

  7. The mammalian Vps10p sorting receptor family is a group of 5 type I membrane homologs (Sortilin, SorLA, and SorCS1-3). These receptors bind various cargo proteins via their luminal Vps10p domains and have been...

    Authors: Andrew C Nyborg, Thomas B Ladd, Craig W Zwizinski, James J Lah and Todd E Golde

  8. Presenilin-dependent γ-secretase cleavage of several transmembrane proteins, including amyloid-β precursor protein and Notch, mediates the intramembrane proteolysis to liberate their intracellular domains that...

    Authors: Taisuke Tomita, Sayaka Tanaka, Yuichi Morohashi and Takeshi Iwatsubo
    Citation: Molecular Neurodegeneration 2006 1:2
  9. Despite the existence of several scientific journals that publish research papers and reviews related to neurodegenerative diseases, a journal specifically devoted to the molecular and cellular aspects of dise...
