A survey of Cdk5 activator p35 and p25 levels in Alzheimer's disease brains
Open accessAbstract
P25, a calpain cleavage product of the cyclin‐dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) activator p35, causes prolonged activation of Cdk5. Although p25 has been shown to accumulate in brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD), it is not known whether p25 accumulation in AD is brain region‐specific. We analyzed the amounts of p25 and p35 in human autopsy samples from multiple brain regions including frontal cortex, inferior parietal cortex and hippocampus using immunoblotting assays. Our results show that the p25–p35 indices are higher in AD than in the control groups in all three brain regions. The most significant difference in p25–p35 indices between AD and control groups is in the frontal cortex. No significant difference in calpain activity between AD and control groups is observed, indicating that postmortem calpain activation cannot account for the elevation of p25/p35 ratios in AD brains. Our results support the notion that p25 accumulation deregulates Cdk5 activity in AD brains, and the deregulated Cdk5 activity may contribute to the pathogenesis of AD.

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.
