Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, USA.
Background: The TREAT-AD centers aim to improve Alzheimer's Disease (AD) research by offering free, high-quality tools and technologies. Lyn is a tyrosine kinase that belongs to the Src family kinases. The expression of Lyn and its activity have been implicated in AD.

Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, USA.
Background: Focusing on novel AD treatments, the TREAT-AD centers offer an array of free research tools, shared via the AD Knowledge Portal in a Target Enablement Package (TEP). This abstract showcases the research conducted by the IUSM-Purdue TREAT-AD Center, specifically focusing on Targeting class-II PI3K's as a potential breakthrough in AD therapy. Endocytosis within the brain encompasses diverse pathways for internalizing extracellular cargoes and receptors into cells.

Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, USA.
Background: SHIP1 is a phosphatidyl inositol phosphatase encoded by INPP5D, which has been identified as a risk gene for Alzheimer's disease (AD). SHIP1 is expressed in microglia, the resident macrophage in brain. It is a complex, multidomain protein that acts as a negative regulator downstream from TREM2.

Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, USA.
Background: The TaRget Enablement to Accelerate Therapy Development of Alzheimer's Disease (TREAT-AD) Centers are dedicated to identifying and validating targets from the NIH Accelerating Medicines Partnership for Alzheimer's Disease (AMP-AD). The centers develop Target Enabling Packages (TEPs) to explore new therapeutic target hypotheses, moving beyond the traditional focus on amyloid or tau pathologies. In accordance with open science principles, data, methods, and tools are freely shared with the research community via an open-access platform, the AD Knowledge Portal.

December 2024
Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, USA.
Background: The goal of the TREAT-AD Center is to enable drug discovery by developing assays and providing tool compounds for novel and emerging targets. The role of microglia in neuroinflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Genome-wide association studies, whole genome sequencing, and gene-expression network analyses comparing normal to AD brain have identified risk and protective variants in genes essential to microglial function.
