miR-34a in Neurophysiology and Neuropathology.

TL;DR: The known and emerging roles of the miR-34a regulatory network in neurophysiology and neuropathology are discussed and modulated by factors that control its expression as well as its downstream target genes and signaling pathways.

Dexmedetomidine Provides Protection Against Hippocampal Neuron Apoptosis and Cognitive Impairment in Mice with Alzheimer’s Disease by Mediating the miR-129/YAP1/JAG1 Axis

TL;DR: The findings showed that Dex administration resulted in the enhancement of miR-129 expression with declined hippocampal neuron apoptosis and attenuated cognitive impairment in Aβ1–42-injected mice, suggesting the miR -129/YAP1/JAG1 axis could potentially be the mechanism by which Dex protects AD mice from cognitive impairment.

Angiotensin-converting Enzyme Degrades Alzheimer Amyloid β-Peptide (Aβ); Retards Aβ Aggregation, Deposition, Fibril Formation; and Inhibits Cytotoxicity

TL;DR: The hypothesis that ACE may affect susceptibility to AD by degrading Aβ and preventing the accumulation of amyloid plaques in vivo is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overexpression of ABCA1 reduces amyloid deposition in the PDAPP mouse model of Alzheimer disease

TL;DR: The conclusions that increased ABCA1-mediated lipidation of apoE in the CNS can reduce amyloid burden and that increasingABCA1 function may have a therapeutic effect on AD are supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lack of ABCA1 considerably decreases brain ApoE level and increases amyloid deposition in APP23 mice.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the targeted disruption of ABCA1 increases amyloid deposition in APP23 mice, and the effect is manifested by an increased level of Aβ immunoreactivity, as well as thioflavine S-positive plaques in brain parenchyma, and thus may be considered a therapeutic target in AD.

Amyloid β-Protein Is Degraded by Cellular Angiotensin-converting Enzyme (ACE) and Elevated by an ACE Inhibitor

TL;DR: It is shown that ACE can lower the levels of secreted Aβ in living cells and that this effect is blocked by inhibiting the protease's activity with an ACE inhibitor.
