Low-moderate dose whole-brain γ-ray irradiation modulates the expressions of glial fibrillary acidic protein and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 in the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine-induced Parkinson's disease mouse model
Neurobiol Aging. 2023 Jun 29;132:175-184. doi: 10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2023.06.015. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe anti-inflammatory efficacy of radiation therapy (RT) with single fractions below 1.0 Gy has been demonstrated in Alzheimer's disease mouse models. As neuroinflammation is also a major pathological feature of Parkinson's disease (PD), RT may also be effective in PD treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of low-moderate dose RT (LMDRT, 0.6 Gy/single dose, for 5 days) exposure in a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP; 30 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, for ...

The role of gut-brain axis in a rotenone-induced rat model of Parkinson's disease
Neurobiol Aging. 2023 Jul 13;132:185-197. doi: 10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2023.07.005. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTParkinson's disease (PD) is a widespread neurodegenerative condition affecting millions globally. This investigation centered on the gut-brain axis in a rotenone-induced PD rat model. Researchers monitored behavioral shifts, histological modifications, neurodegeneration, and inflammation markers throughout the rats' bodies. Results revealed that rotenone-treated rats displayed reduced exploration (p = 0.004) and motor coordination (p < 0.001), accompanied by decreased Nissl staining and increased alpha-synu...

Protein retention in the endoplasmic reticulum rescues A β toxicity in Drosophila
Neurobiol Aging. 2023 Sep 21;132:154-174. doi: 10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2023.09.008. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAmyloid β (Aβ) accumulation is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. In adult Drosophila brains, human Aβ overexpression harms climbing and lifespan. It's uncertain whether Aβ is intrinsically toxic or activates downstream neurodegeneration pathways. Our study uncovers a novel protective role against Aβ toxicity: intra-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein accumulation with a focus on laminin and collagen subunits. Despite high Aβ, laminin B1 (LanB1) overexpression robustly counters toxicity, suggesting a pote...

Alzheimer's disease cortical morphological phenotypes are associated with TOMM40'523-APOE haplotypes
Neurobiol Aging. 2023 Sep 11;132:131-144. doi: 10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2023.09.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBoth the APOE ε4 and TOMM40 rs10524523 ("523") genes have been associated with risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and neuroimaging biomarkers of AD. No studies have investigated the relationship of TOMM40'523-APOE ε4 on the structural complexity of the brain in AD individuals. We quantified brain morphology and multiple cortical attributes in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and AD, then tested whether APOE ε4 or TOMM40 poly-T genotypes were related to AD morphological biomarkers in cognitive...
