Genetic correlation between neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases was explored using local rg analysis. Unique relationships were found, suggesting shared genetic mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets in complex diseases.
The authors review the diverse functions of Clusterin in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, focusing on evidence that Clusterin may act either as a suppressor or enhancer of pathology.
Cell Line: Transfected with the pB-T-PAF expression plasmid expressing CLU under the tet operator and the PB-RN reverse transactivator plasmid expressing the reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator under the CMV promoter.
