Understanding the structure, function and mechanism of Synaptojanin1 in the context of neurological disease Vrije Universiteit Brussel
important cellular processes, including cell signaling, exo- and
endocytosis, and synaptic vesicle trafficking. Consequently, the PIP
levels in the cell are regulated by a variety of kinases and
phosphatases. Synaptojanin1 (Synj1) is a pre-synaptic enzyme,
containing two catalytic PIP phosphatase domains: the so-called
SAC1 and 5-PPase ...

A novel chimeric model investigating human neurological features in Alzheimer’s disease KU Leuven
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a severe neurodegenerative disease that troubles people and society for many years. However, understanding of its mechanism is still limited due to the lack of proper models. In this study, I want to build up a novel AD chimeric mouse model through implanting human cortical organoids into amyloid model mice. These mini-brains undergo vascularization, thickening of the cortical plate, differential cortical layer ...
