Neurobiology of axonal transport defects in motor neuron diseases: opportunities for translational research?

TLDR
Current understanding of axonal transport defects and the role they play in motor neuron diseases (MNDs) are reviewed with a specific focus on the most common form of MND, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Amyloid oligomers: A joint experimental/computational perspective on Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, type II diabetes, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review what computer, in vitro, in vivo, and pharmacological experiments tell us about the accumulation and deposition of the oligomers of the (Aβ, tau), α-synuclein, IAPP, and superoxide dismutase 1 proteins, which have been the mainstream concept underlying Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease (PD), type II diabetes (T2D), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) research.

HDAC6 is a microtubule-associated deacetylase

TL;DR: The results show that HDAC6 is the tubulin deacetylase, and provide evidence that reversible acetylation regulates important biological processes beyond histone metabolism and gene transcription, including microtubule-dependent cell motility.

SeminarAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis

TL;DR: This paper summarized current concepts about the origin of the disease, what predisposes patients to develop the disorder, and discuss why all cases of ALS are not the same, focusing on the small steps of extending longevity, improving therapies, undertaking clinical trials, and compiling population registries to the overarching goals of establishing the measures that guard against onset and finding the triggers for this neurodegenerative disorder.

TL;DR: Human brain tau and paired helical filament polypeptides co-migrated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels suggest that tau is a major component of Alzheimer paired helicals filaments.

Conversion of p35 to p25 deregulates Cdk5 activity and promotes neurodegeneration

TL;DR: It is found that p25, a truncated form of p35, accumulates in neurons in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease, and this accumulation correlates with an increase in Cdk5 kinase activity.

Do a review of axonal intracellular transport properties?

The paper provides a review of axonal transport defects and their role in motor neuron diseases, specifically amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, it does not specifically review axonal intracellular transport properties.
