HMGB1 signaling phosphorylates Ku70 and impairs DNA damage repair in Alzheimer’s disease pathology

Tanaka et al use phosphoproteome analysis of post-mortem Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) brains and identified abnormal phosphorylation of Ku70, which leads to DNA damage and transcriptional repression-induced atypical cell death. In a mouse model of AD, the authors show that Ku70 phosporylation is regulat...
