PICALM modulates autophagy activity and tau accumulation

TL;DR: It is shown that CALM modulates autophagy and alters clearance of tau, a protein which is a known autophagic substrate and which is causatively linked to AD, both in vitro and in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

SARS-CoV-2 and the possible connection to ERs, ACE2, and RAGE: Focus on susceptibility factors.

TL;DR: The current state of the field regarding SARS‐CoV‐2 research is presented and where research is needed is illuminated to better define the role both estrogen and metabolic comorbidities have in the COVID‐19 disease state, which can be key in screening potential therapeutic options as the search for effective treatments continue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Membrane estrogen receptor ERα activation improves tau clearance via autophagy induction in a tauopathy cell model

TL;DR: In this article , the authors evaluated the autophagy mechanisms involved in neuroprotection induced by 17β-estradiol (E2) in a Tet-On inducible expression tauopathy cell model (EGFP-tau WT or with the P301L mutation, 0N4R isoform).
