1 12196140 In Alzheimer's disease, amyloid deposition in the form of neuritic plaques and congophilic angiopathy is driven by the conversion of normal soluble amyloid-beta peptide (sA beta) to A beta plaques; while in the prionoses the critical event is the conversion of normal prion protein, PrP(C), to the disease-associated form, PrP(Sc).
2 15292505 Immunization of Prnp(o/o) mice with bacterially expressed PrP (PrP(REC)) resulted in vigorous humoral immune responses to PrP(REC) and native cell-surface PrP(C).
3 15780734 For each hamster included in the study, prion-specific serum antibodies as well as deposition of pathological prion protein (PrP(res)), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and mRNA expression for cytokines (TNF alpha, IL-1beta, IL-10) in brain tissues were evaluated.
4 15780734 In immunized animals, increased survival after challenge was associated with a reduction of cerebral lesion, PrP deposition and GFAP expression; in these animals, anti-prion protein peptide antibody levels were increased, and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF alpha and IL-1beta) was reduced.
5 15780734 For each hamster included in the study, prion-specific serum antibodies as well as deposition of pathological prion protein (PrP(res)), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and mRNA expression for cytokines (TNF alpha, IL-1beta, IL-10) in brain tissues were evaluated.
6 15780734 In immunized animals, increased survival after challenge was associated with a reduction of cerebral lesion, PrP deposition and GFAP expression; in these animals, anti-prion protein peptide antibody levels were increased, and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF alpha and IL-1beta) was reduced.
7 16426006 In this communication, the development of antibodies against recombinant bovine prion protein (brecPrP) in four strains of mice (BALB/c, ND4, SJL, and NZB/NZW F(1)) is described.
8 16563575 The BTT epitopes [VP1 (133-156)-3A (11-40)-VP4 (20-34)] were cloned into the plasmid pCMV, either alone or fused to ubiquitin, the lysosomal targeting signal from LIMPII, a soluble version of CTLA4 or a signal peptide from the human prion protein, to analyze the effect of processing through different antigenic presentation pathways on the immunogenicity of the FMDV epitopes.
9 17709493 Polylactide-coglycolide microspheres co-encapsulating recombinant tandem prion protein with CpG-oligonucleotide break self-tolerance to prion protein in wild-type mice and induce CD4 and CD8 T cell responses.
10 17709493 Furthermore, s.c. immunization with tPrP and CpG-ODN co-encapsulated in biodegradable polylactide-coglycolide microspheres (PLGA-MS) enhanced CD4 T cell responses and, more prominent, the induction of CD8 T cells.
11 22128151 The results support the conclusion that the (Ctm)PrP, a transmembrane form of the prion protein, adopts a different conformation than the reported structures of the normal prion protein determined in solution.
12 23964513 Here we investigated an effect of affinity purified antibodies to synthetic fragment 95-123 of the prion protein on beta-amyloid induced cell death, Ca(2+)-signal, reactive oxygen species production and caspase 3 activation.
13 23964513 However, the antibodies significantly reduced Abeta induced reactive oxygen species production in astrocytes and decreased caspase 3 activation in neurons and astrocytes.
14 25542071 Because of the discovery of 2-hydroxyacyl-CoA lyase (HACL1) as the first peroxisomal enzyme in mammals found to be dependent on thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) and the ability of thiamine to bind with prion protein, these factors should improve our clinical approach to TD.
15 25542071 HACL1 has two important roles in alpha oxidation, the degradation of phytanic acid and shortening of 2-hydroxy long-chain fatty acids so that they can be degraded further by beta oxidation.
