In the present study, we analyzed the involvement of PrPC in different pathological mechanisms underlying AD: the processing of the amyloid-beta protein precursor (A beta PP) and its interaction with A beta PP, tau, and different phosphorylated forms of the tau protein (p-tau). The effect of PrPC on tau expression was investigated in various cellular compartments using a HEK293 cell model expressing a tau mutant (3PO-tau) or wild type (WT)-tau. We could show that PrPC reduces A beta PP cleavage, leading to decreased levels of A beta(40) and sA beta PP without changing the protein expression of A beta PP, beta-secretase, or gamma-secretase. Tau and its phosphorylated forms were identified as interactions partners for PrPC, raising the question as to whether PrPC might also be involved in tau pathology. Overexpression of PrPC in PRNP and 3PO-tau transfected cells resulted in a reduction of 3PO-tau and p-tau as well as a decrease of 3PO-tau-related toxicity. In addition, we used the transgenic PrPC knockout (Prnp0/0) mouse line to study the dynamics of tau phosphorylation, an important pathological hallmark in the pathogenesis of AD in vivo. There, an effect of PrPC on tau expression could be observed under oxidative stress conditions but not during aging. In summary, we provide further evidence for interactions of PrPC with proteins that are known to be the key players in AD pathogenesis. We identified tau and its phosphorylated forms as potential PrP-interactors and report a novel protective function of PrPC in AD-like tau pathology."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3233/JAD-130566"],["dc.identifier.gro","3142228"],["dc.identifier.isi","000327598500009"],["dc.identifier.pmid","24028865"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/10657"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5954"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.eissn","1875-8908"],["dc.relation.issn","1387-2877"],["dc.rights","CC BY 3.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0"],["dc.title","Impact of the Cellular Prion Protein on Amyloid-beta and 3PO-Tau Processing"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

It is the major lipid component of detergent resistant caveolin-1 containing rafts which previously had been reported as a platform for nerve growth factor (NGF) signaling in oligodendrocytes (OL). Surprisingly, a knockdown of caveolin-1 attenuated the process formation of OL (Schmitz et al. J Neurosci Res 88:572-588, 2010), for which a loss of cholesterol could be responsible. In the present report, we could show that a caveolin-1 knockdown resulted in an elevation of cellular cholesterol level; it may indicate an important role of caveolin-1 in cholesterol trafficking to the plasma membrane. Treatment with exogenous PEG cholesterol, which was incorporated to the plasma membrane, supported oligodendroglial process formation, in particular when OL were stimulated by NGF. In this context we have found that OL express NPC1L1 (Niemann-Pick disease type C1-Like 1) which could modulate cholesterol uptake. In contrast, depletion of membrane-bound cholesterol diminished NGF-induced process formation concomitant with a reduced activity of p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinases."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s12031-012-9833-2"],["dc.identifier.isi","000314701300003"],["dc.identifier.pmid","22740150"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/10388"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/30653"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Humana Press Inc"],["dc.relation.issn","0895-8696"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.title","Oligodendroglial Process Formation is Differentially Affected by Modulating the Intra- and Extracellular Cholesterol Content"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
