Disease relevance of Setoflavin T

 

Psychiatry related information on Setoflavin T

 

High impact information on Setoflavin T

  • The mutants 15Ure2 and Delta 15-42Ure2 showed the same time-dependent variation in fibril types but with an increased lag time detected by ThT binding compared with wild-type Ure2 [3].
  • The results imply a role of the conserved region in both amyloid nucleation and formation of the binding surface recognized by ThT [3].
  • In addition, Delta 15-42Ure2 showed reduced binding to ThT [3].
  • Interleukin-1beta- and tumor necrosis factor alpha-immunopositive microglia were localized with thioflavine-positive (fibrillar) Abeta deposits [4].
  • We counted plaque number, NFT number, dystrophic neurite number, and the relative extent of thioflavine positive plaques and neuritic involvement within plaques [5].
 

Anatomical context of Setoflavin T

 

Associations of Setoflavin T with other chemical compounds

 

Gene context of Setoflavin T

  • Silver and thioflavine staining confirmed the reduction of amyloid plaques on the side of deafferentation [11].
  • CONCLUSIONS: The present data demonstrating amyloidophilic dye binding, in situ red shift in thioflavine fluorescence, and apple-green birefringence provide evidence that lens protein beta-sheet arrays are organized in an amyloid-like supramolecular order in interior fiber cells of mammalian ocular lenses [12].
  • Two techniques were used simultaneously on serial sections: thioflavine staining of amyloid substance and immunohistochemistry with immune sera against Paired Helical Filaments (anti-PHF) and native Tau proteins (anti-Tau) [13].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Setoflavin T

  • Atomic force microscopy height images at successive time points during a single growth experiment showed the sequential appearance of at least four fibril types that could be readily differentiated by height (5, 8, 12, or 9 nm), morphology (twisted or smooth), and/or time of appearance (early or late in the plateau phase of ThT binding) [3].
  • Fibrillization of the neuron-derived diffuse, thioflavine-negative or benign plaques is poor or undetectable by current morphological methods including ultrastructural immunocytochemistry [14].
