Probable Novel APP Met671Leu Mutation in a Chinese Han Family with Early-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease

A Study Exploring a New Mutation in Early-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder, accounting for 60-70% of all dementia cases. In recent years, with global population aging and environmental changes, the incidence of AD has been increasing annually. It is predicted that by 2050, the number of patie...

Acetylation of c-Myc at Lysine 148 Protects Neurons After Ischemia

Research Background This study explores the role of the cancer-related transcription factor c-myc in penumbra neurons following ischemic stroke. Although the role of c-myc in cell death and survival has been recognized, research on its post-translational modifications, especially acetylation, in ischemic models remains insufficient. Investigating t...

Tetramethylpyrazine Nitrone Promotes the Clearance of Alpha‑Synuclein via Nrf2‑Mediated Ubiquitin–Proteasome System Activation

Tetramethylpyrazine Nitrone Promotes α-Synuclein Clearance: NRF2-Mediated UPS Activation Background Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the formation of Lewy bodies, with α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregation as the main component. ...

Inhibition of p70 Ribosomal S6 Kinase (S6K1) Reduces Cortical Blood Flow in a Rat Model of Autism-Tuberous Sclerosis

Inhibition of p70 ribosomal S6 kinase (S6K1) Reduces Cerebral Cortical Blood Flow in Autism-Tuberous Sclerosis Rats: Research Report Background Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes, primarily characterized by multiple benign tumors, including symptoms such as epilepsy, autism spectrum ...

The Relationship Between CYP46A1 Polymorphism and Suicide Risk: A Preliminary Investigation

Preliminary Research Report on the Relationship between CYP46A1 Polymorphism and Suicide Risk Research Background Suicide, defined as the intentional act of ending one’s own life, is a major global public health issue.
