Sci Rep
. 2020 Oct;
10(1):17733.
PMID: 33082392
Studies on the amyloidogenic N-terminal domain of the E. coli HypF protein (HypF-N) have contributed significantly to a detailed understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases characterised by the...

Camilleri A, Ghio S, Caruana M, Weckbecker D, Schmidt F, Kamp F, et al.
Biochim Biophys Acta Biomembr
. 2019 Sep;
1862(2):183064.
PMID: 31521630
Misfolding and aggregate formation by the tau protein has been closely related with neurotoxicity in a large group of human neurodegenerative disorders, which includes Alzheimer's disease. Here, we investigate the...

Ghio S, Camilleri A, Caruana M, Ruf V, Schmidt F, Leonov A, et al.
ACS Chem Neurosci
. 2019 Jul;
10(8):3815-3829.
PMID: 31356747
Aggregation of the amyloid-forming α-synuclein (αS) protein is closely associated with the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD), the most common motor neurodegenerative disorder. Many studies have shown that soluble aggregation...

EMBO Mol Med
. 2017 Dec;
10(1):32-47.
PMID: 29208638
Alzheimer's disease is a devastating neurodegenerative disease eventually leading to dementia. An effective treatment does not yet exist. Here we show that oral application of the compound anle138b restores hippocampal...

Briffa M, Ghio S, Neuner J, Gauci A, Cacciottolo R, Marchal C, et al.
Neurosci Lett
. 2016 Dec;
638:12-20.
PMID: 27919712
A signature feature of age-related neurodegenerative proteinopathies is the misfolding and aggregation of proteins, typically amyloid-β (Aβ) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and α-synuclein (α-syn) in Parkinson's disease (PD), into soluble...

Putative Role of Red Wine Polyphenols against Brain Pathology in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease
Caruana M, Cauchi R, Vassallo N
Front Nutr
. 2016 Aug;
3:31.
PMID: 27570766
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) are the most common age-related neurodegenerative disorders and hence pose remarkable socio-economical burdens to both families and state. Although AD and PD have...

Adv Exp Med Biol
. 2015 Jun;
863:117-37.
PMID: 26092629
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common motor neurodegenerative disorder with multifactorial etiology that is an increasing burden on our aging society. PD is characterized by nigrostriatal degeneration which might involve...

Camilleri A, Zarb C, Caruana M, Ostermeier U, Ghio S, Hogen T, et al.
Biochim Biophys Acta
. 2013 Jul;
1828(11):2532-43.
PMID: 23817009
Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are neurodegenerative disorders characterised by the misfolding of proteins into soluble prefibrillar aggregates. These aggregate complexes disrupt mitochondrial function, initiating a pathophysiological cascade leading to...
