redox proteomics identification of oxidatively modified proteins in Alzheimer's disease brtain and in vivo models of AD centered around Abeta (1-42).
No full textAbstract
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease associated with loss of memory and cognition. One hallmark of AD is the accumulation of amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta), which invokes a cascade of oxidative damage to neurons that can eventually result in neuronal death. Several markers of oxidative stress have been identified in AD brain, thus providing greater understanding into potential mechanisms involved in the disease pathogenesis and progression. In the present article, we review the application of redox proteomics to the identification of oxidized proteins in AD brain and also our recent findings on amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta)-associated in vivo and in vitro models of AD. Our redox proteomics approach has made possible the identification of specifically oxidized proteins in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain, providing for the first time evidence on how oxidative stress plays a crucial role in AD-related neurodegeneration. The information obtained has great potential to aid in determining the molecular pathogenesis in and detecting disease markers of AD, as well as identifying potential targets for drug therapy in AD. Application of redox proteomics to study cellular events, especially related to disease dysfunction, may provide an efficient tool to understand the main mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis and progression of oxidative stress-related neurodegenerative disorders
Protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation in brain of subjects with Alzheimer's disease: insights into mechanism of neurodegeneration from redox proteomics.
No full textAlzheimer's disease (AD), the leading cause of dementia, involves regionalized neuronal death, synaptic loss, and an accumulation of intraneuronal, neurofibrillary tangles and extracellular senile plaques. Although the initiating causes leading to AD are unknown, a number of previous studies reported the role of oxidative stress in AD brain. Postmortem analysis of AD brain showed elevated markers of oxidative stress including protein nitrotyrosine, carbonyls in proteins, lipid oxidation products, and oxidized DNA bases. In this review, we focus our attention on the role of protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation in the pathogenesis of AD. Particular attention is given to the current knowledge about the redox proteomics identification of oxidatively modified proteins in AD brai
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
