Selenium reportedly contribute to the modulation process of protein phosphorylation to regulate various cellular functions including growth, differentiation, proliferation and development. The aim of this study was to investigate whether selenium and Selenoprotein M (SelM) affects the mechanism of Alzheimer's

Neurofibrillary tangles, one of pathological features of Alzheimer's disease, are produced by the hyperphosphorylation and aggregation of tau protein. This study aimed to investigate the effects of treadmill exercise on PI3K/AKT/mTOR signal transmission, autophagy, and cognitive ability that are involved

Tau is a microtubule-associated protein that is functionally modulated by phosphorylation and hyperphosphorylated in several neurodegenerative diseases. Because phosphorylation regulates both normal and pathological tau functioning, it is of great interest to identify the signalling pathways and enzymes capable of
