Abstract:
:The levels of calpains (m-calpain and mu-calpain) in peripheral blood lymphocytes from patients with Alzheimer's disease were determined via Western blotting. The Ca-dependent proteolytic activity and the calpastatin activity were estimated using incubation with exogenous substrate. Evidence was obtained for an increased Ca-dependent proteolytic activity in lymphocytes from patients with early onset Alzheimer's disease. There was also an increased level of membrane-bound mu-calpain in this group of patients. The observed changes may be caused by a general dysregulation of Ca homeostasis in peripheral cells of early onset Alzheimer victims.
