Rescue of amyloid-Beta-induced inhibition of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors by a peptide homologous to the nicotine binding domain of the alpha 7 subtype

TL;DR: Findings indicate that Aβ40 inhibits different subtypes of nAChRs by interacting with specific receptor domains homologous to the IQ peptide, suggesting that IQ may be a lead for novel drugs to block the inhibition of cholinergic function in AD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endoplasmic reticulum stress links impaired insulin signaling and Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that aggregation of the ER promotes the formation of Atg14L-Beclin1-Vps34 complex to initiate autophagy and p62 on the ER further promote clearance of damaged ER for autophagic degradation.
