Item Endoplasmic reticulum stress in Alzheimer's disease: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic prospects(Elsevier Inc., 2023-07-29T00:00:00) Nagar, Pushank; Sharma, Prajjwal; Dhapola, Rishika; Kumari, Sneha; Medhi, Bikash; HariKrishnaReddy, DibbantiAlzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that leads to memory loss and cognitive impairment over time. It is characterized by protein misfolding as well as prolonged cellular stress, such as perturbing calcium homeostasis and redox management. Numerous investigations have proven that endoplasmic reticulum failure may exhibit exacerbation of AD pathogenesis in AD patients, in-vivo and in-vitro models. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) participates in a variety of biological functions including folding of protein, quality control, cholesterol production, and maintenance of calcium balance. A diverse range of physiological, pathological and pharmacological substances can interfere with ER activity and thus lead to exaggeration of ER stress. The unfolded protein response (UPR), an intracellular signaling network is stimulated due to ER stress. Three stress sensors found in the endoplasmic reticulum, the PERK, ATF6, and IRE1 transducers detect protein misfolding in the ER and trigger UPR, a complex system to maintain homeostasis. ER stress is linked to many of the major pathological processes that are seen in AD, including presenilin1 and 2 (PS1 and PS2) gene mutation, tau phosphorylation and ?-amyloid formation. The role of ER stress and UPR in the pathophysiology of AD implies that they can be employed as potent therapeutic target. This study shows the relationship between ER and AD and how the pathogenesis of AD is influenced by the impact of ER stress. An effective method for the prevention or treatment of AD may involve therapeutic strategies that modify ER stress pathways. � 2023 Elsevier Inc.Item Implicative role of cytokines in neuroinflammation mediated AD and associated signaling pathways: Current progress in molecular signaling and therapeutics(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2023-10-30T00:00:00) Kumari, Sneha; Dhapola, Rishika; Sharma, Prajjwal; Singh, Sunil K.; Reddy, Dibbanti HariKrishnaAlzheimer's Disease (AD) is one of the most devastating age-related disorder causing significant social and economic burden worldwide. It affects the cognitive and social behavior of individuals and characterized by accumulation of A?, phosphorylated tau and cytokines formation. The synthesis and release of cytokines are regulated by specific groups of immune and non-immune cells in response to microglia or astrocyte activation through multiple pathways. Physiologically, microglia assert an anti-inflammatory, quiescent state with minimal cytokine expression and little phagocytic activity in motion to carry out their housekeeping role to eliminate pathogens, aggregated A? and tau protein. However, they develop a phagocytic nature and overexpress cytokine gene modules in response to certain stimuli in AD. Microglia and astrocytes upon chronic activation release an enormous amount of inflammatory cytokines due to interaction with formed A? and neurofibrillary tangle. Gut microbiota dysbiosis also stimulates the release of inflammatory cytokines contributing to AD pathogenesis. In addition, the dysregulation of few signaling pathways significantly influences the development of disease, and the pace of advancement also rises with age. This review sheds light on multiple pathways results into neuroinflammation triggered by activated cytokines worsening AD pathology and making it an appropriate target for AD treatment. This review also included drugs targeting different neuroinflammation pathways under clinical and preclinical studies that are found to be effective in attenuating the disease pathology. � 2023 Elsevier B.V.Item Nanotherapeutics for Parkinson's disease using metal nanocomposites(CRC Press, 2023-10-19T00:00:00) Dhapola, Rishika; Sharma, Prajjwal; Kumari, Sneha; Nagar, Pushank; Medhi, Bikash; Reddy, Dibbanti Harikrishna[No abstract available]
