Journal ArticleDOI

Exercise and BDNF reduce Aβ production by enhancing α-secretase processing of APP.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exercise and BDNF reduce production of toxic Aβ peptides through a mechanism involving enhanced α‐secretase processing of APP, and suggests that BDNF's ability to promote neurite outgrowth is primarily exerted through pathways other than APP processing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Essential role for integrin linked kinase in Akt-mediated integrin survival signaling in hippocampal neurons.

TL;DR: It is reported that integrin signaling prevents apoptosis of embryonic hippocampal neurons by a mechanism involving integrin‐linked kinase (ILK) that activates Akt kinase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-death properties of TNF against metabolic poisoning: mitochondrial stabilization by MnSOD.

TL;DR: Results indicate that MnSOD activity directly stabilizes mitochondrial transmembrane potential and calcium buffering ability, thereby increasing the threshold for lethal injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of amyloid precursor protein derivatives andoxidative stress on basal forebrain cholinergic systems inALZHEIMERS disease

TL;DR: Knowledge of the cellular and molecular underpinnings of dysfunction and degeneration of cholinergic circuits is leading to the development of novel preventative and therapeutic approaches for Alzheimers disease and related disorders.
