The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of the new TSPO ligands on mitochondrial dysfunction in a cellular model of AD-related tauopathy (human neuroblastoma cells SH-SY5Y stably overexpressing the P301L-mutant Tau) presenting mitochondrial impairments, including a decreased ATP synthesis and mitochondrial membrane potential, as well as a decrease in pregnenolone synthesis compared to control cells.

We clinically characterized and whole-exome genotyped 71 individuals with AD from the Paisa genetic isolate, segregating the (PSEN1) E280A dominant fully penetrant mutation, and analyzed the potential recessive effects of ~ 50,000 common functional genomic variants to the ADAOO.
Dermal fibroblasts were obtained from a 55 year old male Сaucasian familial Alzheimer's disease (AD) patient carrying heterozygous V717I mutation in the APP gene.
We studied a new amyloid-beta precursor protein (<i>App</i>) knock-in mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (<i>App<sup>NL-G-F</sup></i> ), containing the Swedish KM670/671NL mutation, the Iberian I716F mutation and the Artic E693G mutation, which generates elevated levels of amyloid beta (Aβ)<sub>40</sub> and Aβ<sub>42</sub> without the confounds associated with APP overexpression.
The proband carried an APP missense variant in homozygous state (NM_000484.4: c.2032G>A; NP_000475.1: p.Asp678Asn; rs63750064) and showed a more severe clinical picture than the other AD relatives, as regards the age of onset and the rate of disease progression.
Taken together, we established the first iPSC line derived from an AD patient carrying APP-V715M mutation and showed that this iPSC-derived neurons exhibited typical AD pathological features, including a distinct mitochondrial dysfunction.

Familial L723P Mutation Can Shift the Distribution between the Alternative APP Transmembrane Domain Cleavage Cascades by Local Unfolding of the Ε-Cleavage Site Suggesting a Straightforward Mechanism of Alzheimer's Disease Pathogenesis.
Interestingly, reduced nuclear mSREBP-2 was only found in animal models of tauopathies such as 3XTg AD mice and P301L Tau Tg mice but not in CRND8 APP transgenic mice, suggesting that tau alterations likely are involved in the changes of mSREBP-2 distribution and activation in AD.
In the present study, we aimed to characterize the link between ER stress and bioenergetics defects under normal condition (human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells: control cells) or under pathological AD condition [SH-SY5Y cells overexpressing either the human amyloid precursor protein (APP) or mutant tau (P301L)].

Neuropathologic and molecular studies in brains of carriers of the PSEN1 p.A396T mutation or other PSEN1 or PSEN2 mutations associated with the coexistence of DLBD and AD are needed to clarify whether tau and α-synuclein proteinopathies occur independently or whether a relationship exists between α-synuclein and tau that might explain the mechanisms of coaggregation.
