A new study discovers the mechanism that explains the association between decreased levels of PKMzeta protein and Alzheimer's disease. The findings are published in the journal Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) – Gene Regulatory Mechanisms.//
To understand the mechanism, the researchers used epigenetics, the science of how environmental stimuli activate or inhibit gene expression without altering the DNA sequence. An epigenetic technique often used by researchers is [...]

The protein PKMzeta has been strongly associated with long-term memory formation. Decreased levels of this protein in the brain are associated with neurological illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease, depression, and aging.
Working at the University of São Paulo in Brazil, the researchers used epigenetics to study the mechanism, which could be associated with pathologies such as Alzheimer’s. The discovery expands scientists’ knowledge of the central nervous system. [...]

The protein PKMzeta is known to be associated with long-term memory formation. Neurological disorders such Alzheimer’s disease, as well as depression and aging, correlate with reduced levels of this protein in the brain. Researchers affiliated with institutions in Brazil and the United States have now discovered a mechanism that helps explain the link and could pave the way to future medical innovations. Their study is reported in article published in the journal Biochimica [...]
