Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Zaira E Arellano-Anaya"
- Zaira E Arellano-Anaya's research primarily focuses on the interaction between prion proteins and various nanoparticles, revealing how titanium dioxide and carbon black nanoparticles disrupt neuronal homeostasis by excessively activating cellular prion protein signaling, which is linked to Alzheimer’s disease pathology.
- Her studies highlight the complex mechanisms by which prion-induced pathways contribute to amyloid-beta peptide accumulation in prion disease models, providing insights into the relationship between prion infections and neurodegenerative conditions.
- Additionally, Arellano-Anaya has developed innovative methods for studying prion transmission, including the use of extracellular vesicles and cell-based assays, enhancing the understanding of prion propagation and facilitating advancements in prion research methodologies.
