The pathogenesis of Alzheimers disease is it a lifelong "calciumopathy"?Grace E Stutzmann
Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, The Chicago Medical School, North Chicago, IL 60064, USA
Neuroscientist 13:546-59. 2007..Therefore, "Calcinists" do not necessarily reject betaAptist or Tauist doctrine, but rather believe that their genesis is associated with earlier calcium signaling dysregulations...
Endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) handling in excitable cells in health and diseaseGrace E Stutzmann
Department of Neuroscience, Rosalind Franklin University The Chicago Medical School, 3333 Green Bay Road, North Chicago, IL 60064, USA
Pharmacol Rev 63:700-27. 2011..Preclinical investigations suggest a therapeutic potential for use of agents that target ER Ca(2+) handling systems of excitable cells in disorders ranging from cardiac arrhythmias and skeletal muscle myopathies to Alzheimer disease...
Seeing the brain in action: how multiphoton imaging has advanced our understanding of neuronal functionGrace Stutzmann
Department of Neuroscience, Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, The Chicago Medical School, 3333 Green Bay Road, North Chicago, IL 60064, USA
Microsc Microanal 14:482-91. 2008..In order to better appreciate recent contributions of multiphoton microscopy to our current and future understanding of biological systems, an historical awareness of past microscopy applications is useful...
Enhanced ryanodine-mediated calcium release in mutant PS1-expressing Alzheimer's mouse modelsGrace E Stutzmann
Department of Neuroscience, Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, The Chicago Medical School, 3333 Green Bay Road, North Chicago, IL 60064, USA
Ann N Y Acad Sci 1097:265-77. 2007..Our results highlight the critical roles of RyR-mediated Ca(2+) signaling in both neuronal physiology and pathophysiology, and point to presenilin-linked disruptions in RyR signaling as an important genetic factor in AD...
Enhanced ryanodine receptor recruitment contributes to Ca2+ disruptions in young, adult, and aged Alzheimer's disease miceGrace E Stutzmann
Department of Neurobiology and Behavior, University of California, Irvine, California 92697 4550, USA
J Neurosci 26:5180-9. 2006..We conclude that lifelong ER Ca2+ disruptions in AD are related to a modulation of RyR signaling associated with PS1 mutations and represent a discrete "calciumopathy," not merely an acceleration of normal aging...
Deviant ryanodine receptor-mediated calcium release resets synaptic homeostasis in presymptomatic 3xTg-AD miceShreaya Chakroborty
Department of Neuroscience, Rosalind Franklin University, The Chicago Medical School, North Chicago, Illinois 60064, USA
J Neurosci 29:9458-70. 2009..These early signaling alterations may underlie the later synaptic breakdown and cognitive deficits characteristic of later stage AD...
Calcium dysregulation, IP3 signaling, and Alzheimer's diseaseGrace E Stutzmann
Department of Neurobiology and Behavior, 1146 McGaugh Hall, University of California Irvine, Irvine, CA 92697, USA
Neuroscientist 11:110-5. 2005..The author discusses recent findings in both the physiological functioning of the IP(3)-signaling pathway in neurons and the involvement of ERCa(2+) disruptions in the pathogenesis of AD...
Dysregulated IP3 signaling in cortical neurons of knock-in mice expressing an Alzheimer's-linked mutation in presenilin1 results in exaggerated Ca2+ signals and altered membrane excitabilityGrace E Stutzmann
Department of Neurobiology and Behavior, University of California, Irvine, Irvine, California 92697 4550, USA
J Neurosci 24:508-13. 2004..Even in young animals, PS1 mutations have profound effects on neuronal Ca2+ and electrical signaling: cumulatively, these disruptions may contribute to the long-term pathophysiology of AD...
NMDA-mediated Ca(2+) influx drives aberrant ryanodine receptor activation in dendrites of young Alzheimer's disease miceIvan Goussakov
Department of Neuroscience, Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science The Chicago Medical School, North Chicago, Illinois 60064, USA
J Neurosci 30:12128-37. 2010..We propose that presenilin-linked disruptions in RyR signaling and subsequent CICR via NMDAR-mediated calcium influx alters synaptic function and serves as an early pathogenic factor in AD...
Calcium signaling and amyloid toxicity in Alzheimer diseaseAngelo Demuro
Department of Neurobiology and Behavior, University of California, Irvine, California 92697, USA
J Biol Chem 285:12463-8. 2010..Although no cause or cure is currently known, targeting Ca(2+) dyshomeostasis as an underlying and integral component of AD pathology may result in novel and effective treatments for AD...
Ca2+ signaling in mouse cortical neurons studied by two-photon imaging and photoreleased inositol triphosphateGrace E Stutzmann
Department of Neurobiology and Behavior, University of California, Irvine, Irvine, California 92697 4550, USA
J Neurosci 23:758-65. 2003..Metabotropic signaling via the phosphoinositide pathway thus serves as a powerful and sustained modulator of excitability in cortical neurons and displays complex reciprocal interactions between electrical and chemical signals...
