β‐but not γ‐secretase proteolysis of APP causes synaptic and memory deficits in a mouse model of dementia

R Tamayev, S Matsuda, O Arancio… - EMBO molecular …, 2012 - embopress.org
A mutation in the BRI2/ITM2b gene causes loss of BRI2 protein leading to familial Danish
dementia (FDD). BRI2 deficiency of FDD provokes an increase in amyloid‐β precursor protein (…

[HTML][HTML] The interactome of the amyloid β precursor protein family members is shaped by phosphorylation of their intracellular domains

R Tamayev, D Zhou, L D'Adamio - Molecular neurodegeneration, 2009 - Springer
Background Brain tissue from patients with Alzheimer's disease has shown an increase of
phosphorylation of Tyr-682, located on the conserved Y682ENPTY motif, and Thr-668 …

[HTML][HTML] Inhibition of γ-secretase worsens memory deficits in a genetically congruous mouse model of Danish dementia

[HTML][HTML] Tyr682 in the Intracellular Domain of APP Regulates Amyloidogenic APP Processing In Vivo

APM Barbagallo, R Weldon, R Tamayev, D Zhou… - PloS one, 2010 - journals.plos.org
Background The pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease is attributed to misfolding of Amyloid-β
(Aβ) peptides. Aβ is generated during amyloidogenic processing of Aβ-precursor protein (…

Danish dementia mice suggest that loss of function and not the amyloid cascade causes synaptic plasticity and memory deficits

R Tamayev, S Matsuda, M Fà… - Proceedings of the …, 2010 - National Acad Sciences
According to the prevailing “amyloid cascade hypothesis,” genetic dementias such as
Alzheimer’s disease and familial Danish dementia (FDD) are caused by amyloid deposits that …

Memory deficits due to familial British dementia BRI2 mutation are caused by loss of BRI2 function rather than amyloidosis

R Tamayev, L Giliberto, W Li, C d'Abramo… - Journal of …, 2010 - Soc Neuroscience
… Differently from the FDD KI , we produced a 332 bp fragment containing the ABri mutation
(t798a substitution, leading to a Stop→R transition at codon 267 and to the introduction of an …

APP heterozygosity averts memory deficit in knockin mice expressing the Danish dementia BRI2 mutant

R Tamayev, S Matsuda, L Giliberto, O Arancio… - The EMBO …, 2011 - embopress.org
… APP–Bri2 complexes are detected in T and R extracts but not S extracts. (B) P2 fraction was
prepared from FDD KI (F) and wild‐type (W) mouse brains. P2 was extracted with the Hepes‐…

T yr682 in the A β‐precursor protein intracellular domain regulates synaptic connectivity, cholinergic function, and cognitive performance

C Matrone, S Luvisetto, LR La Rosa, R Tamayev… - Aging cell, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Processing of A β‐precursor protein ( APP ) plays an important role in A lzheimer's disease (
AD ) pathogenesis. The APP intracellular domain contains residues important in regulating …

Increased AβPP processing in familial Danish dementia patients

S Matsuda, R Tamayev… - Journal of Alzheimer's …, 2011 - content.iospress.com
An autosomal dominant mutation in the BRI2/ITM2B gene causes Familial Danish Dementia
(FDD). We have generated a mouse model of FDD, called FDD KI, genetically congruous to …

Memory deficits of British dementia knock-in mice are prevented by Aβ-precursor protein haploinsufficiency

R Tamayev, L D'Adamio - Journal of Neuroscience, 2012 - Soc Neuroscience
… Analysis of these mice has shown that the British mutation causes memory impairments
due to loss of Bri2 function ( Tamayev et al., 2010b ). BRI2 is a physiologic inhibitor of …
