Deans' stroke musings: Treadmill Exercise Improves PINK1/Parkin-Mediated Mitophagy Activity Against Alzheimer’s Disease Pathologies by Upregulated SIRT1-FOXO1/3 Axis in APP/PS1 Mice

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Treadmill Exercise Improves PINK1/Parkin-Mediated Mitophagy Activity Against Alzheimer’s Disease Pathologies by Upregulated SIRT1-FOXO1/3 Axis in APP/PS1 Mice

WHOM is going to do the human research on this? Or do we just have to guess on the time and vigorousness of this treadmill exercise and hope it works?

Abstract

Although treadmill exercise is effective against Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the molecular mechanisms underlying these effects are not fully understood. Recent literature has linked the accumulation of damaged mitochondria and defective mitophagy to AD progression. Here, we determined that abnormally activated PINK1/Parkin pathway–mediated mitophagy plays an important role in AD progression and pathogenesis in 6-month-old APP/PS1 mice. We used the lysosomal inhibitor chloroquine and demonstrated that a 12-week treadmill exercise program improved mitochondrial function, decreased accumulation of β-amyloid plaques, and ameliorated loss of learning and memory ability by enhancing PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy activity in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice. Moreover, using the SIRT1 inhibitor EX527, we found that 12 weeks of treadmill exercise rescued PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy by activating the SIRT1-FOXO1/3 axis in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice. These findings reveal that activating PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy is a promising strategy for AD treatment, and that the SIRT1-FOXO1/3 axis is a potential candidate for the development of mitophagy enhancers.
