Abstract:
Disclosed is a vector pair for screening tau oligomer formation, a mouse embryo introduced with the vector pair, a transgenic model mouse of neurological disease, obtained from the mouse embryo, and a method of screening a tau oligomer formation inhibitor candidate using the transgenic model mouse. More specifically, the present invention provides vector pair for screening tau oligomer formation, comprising: a first vector comprising a first tau gene, a first fluorescence protein gene and a first neuron-specific promoter; and a second vector comprising a second tau gene, a second fluorescence protein gene and a second neuron-specific promoter, wherein a protein expressed from the first fluorescence protein gene and a protein expressed from the second fluorescence protein gene bind to each other to display fluorescence, by association between a protein expressed from the first tau gene and a protein expressed from the second tau gene.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a levosimendan compound, an optically active isomer thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which is used for the prevention and/or treatment of diseases caused by tau aggregation or phosphorylation, such as neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Alzheimer disease). In accordance with yet another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a health functional food for preventing or treating tau aggregation-related diseases, containing a levosimendan compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer or solvate thereof.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a system for monitoring post-translational modification of protein using a biosensor with a gap, which performs with high reliability a diagnosis of a disease associated with a target protein for which impedance is measured, by measuring an impedance of a sample introduced into a sensor and calculating a change rate of the measured impedance, and to a method of manufacturing the biosensor used for the system.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a compound with near-infrared fluorescence that selectively binds to tau aggregates, a method for preparing the same, a tau-targeting near-infrared fluorescent probe including the compound, a composition for detecting a tau fiber protein containing the near-infrared fluorescent probe as an active ingredient, and the use of the composition for the diagnosis of tauopathy. In particular, the compound does not bind to an amyloid beta protein and has high selectivity to a tau aggregate, specifically reported as an etiology of the initial state of tauopathy, thus being useful as a near-infrared fluorescent detector for detecting a tau fiber protein for early diagnosis of a tauopathy including Alzheimer's disease.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a vector pair for screening TDP-43 (TAR DNA-binding protein 43 or TransActive Response DNA-binding protein 43) oligomer formation, a cell line transfected with the vector pair, and a method of monitoring TDP-43 oligomer formation using the cell line. More specifically, the vector pair includes: a first vector including a first TDP-43 gene and a first fluorescence protein gene; and a second vector including a second TDP-43 gene and a second fluorescence protein gene, wherein a protein expressed from the first fluorescence protein gene and a protein expressed from the second fluorescence protein gene bind to each other to display fluorescence, by association between a protein expressed from the first TDP-43 gene and a protein expressed from the second TDP-43 gene. The vector pair is effective in that it makes it possible to monitor TDP-43 oligomer formation in living cells.
