Abstract

Previous studies demonstrated that the PKR (double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase) pathway was activated while the mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) pathway was inhibited in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, we analysed upstream and downstream factors of mTOR in brain of APP(SL)/PS1 KI mice displaying a massive neuronal loss in hippocampus. While mTOR levels were not modified, we found a great activation of Akt with a robust accumulation of P-Akt((T308)) in non-apoptotic neurons at 6 months of age. At the opposite, a significant decrease of the p70/85S6K activation was observed in brain of PS1 KI and APP(SL)/PS1 KI mice with a very weak or no nucleocytoplasmic P-p70/85S6K((T389)) staining in apoptotic neurons of APP(SL)/PS1 KI mice. Furthermore, the activation of Erk1/2, 4E-BP1 and p70S6K((T421/S424)) (substrate of Erk1/2), except eIF4E, was not modified. These findings demonstrate a clear dissociation between Akt and ribosomal S6K signaling markers in these mice which could be involved in the AD pathological process.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • There are two different neuronal responses: some neurons are characterized by a highly reactive Akt/mTOR/RS6K signalling pathway involved in τ-hyperphosphorylation and in future NFTs, and other neurons display a total inhibition of PT389-p70/85S6K leading to the apoptotic process in AD.

    “Taken together, one may propose that there are two different neuronal responses: some neurons are characterized by a highly reactive Akt/mTOR/RS6K signalling pathway involved in τ-hyperphospho-rylation and in future NFTs and other neurons displayed a total inhibition of PT389-p70/85S6K leading to the apoptotic process in AD [91, 94].”
  • These findings demonstrate a clear dissociation between Akt and ribosomal S6K signalling markers in these mice.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
