A growing body of evidence indicates that lipids can uniquely alter the secondary structure and toxicity of Aβ₁_–₄₂ aggregates.

Using a set of molecular and biophysical assays to determine the molecular mechanism by which Aβ₁_–₄₂ aggregates formed in the presence of cholesterol, cardiolipin, and phosphatidylcholine exert cell toxicity. Our findings demonstrate that rat neuronal cells exposed to Aβ₁_–₄₂ fibrils formed in the presence of lipids with different chemical structure exert drastically different magnitude and dynamic of unfolded protein response (UPR) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria (MT). We found that the opposite dynamics of UPR in MT and ER in the cells exposed to Aβ₁_–₄₂: cardiolipin fibrils and Aβ₁_–₄₂ aggregates formed in a lipid-free environment. We also found that Aβ₁_–₄₂: phosphatidylcholine fibrils upregulated ER UPR simultaneously downregulating the UPR response of MT, whereas Aβ₁_–₄₂: cholesterol fibrils suppressed the UPR response of ER and upregulated UPR response of MT. We also observed progressively increasing ROS production that damages mitochondrial membranes and other cell organelles, ultimately leading to cell death.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8815,"journal":{"name":"Biochimica et biophysica acta.

To investigate the roles of TGIF1 in differentiation in-depth, CRISPR/Cas9 knockout technology was performed to generate TGIF1-silenced preadipocytes.
