Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a severe neurological illness that causes memory loss and is a global problem. The calcium hypothesis recently steadily evolved in AD. The prospective targets for calcium homeostasis therapy, however, are limited, and gene expression-level research connected to calcium homeostasis in AD remains hazy. In this study, we analyzed the microarray dataset (GSE132903) taken from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to investigate calcium homeostasis-related genes for AD. Using immunoblot analysis, we examined the association of ITPKB with inflammation in AD. Additionally, the immunofluorescence technique was employed to assess the impact of pharmacological inhibition of ITPKB on the amyloid-β (Aβ) plaque deposition in APP/PS1 mice. This article’s further exploration of calcium homeostasis-related genes has propelled the validation of the calcium homeostasis theory in AD.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Molecular Neuroscience is committed to the rapid publication of original findings that increase our understanding of the molecular structure, function, and development of the nervous system. The criteria for acceptance of manuscripts will be scientific excellence, originality, and relevance to the field of molecular neuroscience. Manuscripts with clinical relevance are especially encouraged since the journal seeks to provide a means for accelerating the progression of basic research findings toward clinical utilization. All experiments described in the Journal of Molecular Neuroscience that involve the use of animal or human subjects must have been approved by the appropriate institutional review committee and conform to accepted ethical standards.
