Abstract
Mitochondria play a vital role in maintaining cellular energy homeostasis, regulating apoptosis, and controlling redox signaling. Dysfunction of mitochondria has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various brain diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, stroke, and psychiatric illnesses. This review paper provides a comprehensive overview of the intricate relationship between mitochondria and brain disease, focusing on the underlying pathological mechanisms and exploring potential therapeutic opportunities. The review covers key topics such as mitochondrial DNA mutations, impaired oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondrial dynamics, calcium dysregulation, and reactive oxygen species generation in the context of brain disease. Additionally, it discusses emerging strategies targeting mitochondrial dysfunction, including mitochondrial protective agents, metabolic modulators, and gene therapy approaches. By critically analysing the existing literature and recent advancements, this review aims to enhance our understanding of the multifaceted role of mitochondria in brain disease and shed light on novel therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
The discovery of effective therapeutics targeting amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregates for Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been very challenging, which suggests its complicated etiology associated with multiple pathogenic elements. In AD-affected brains, highly concentrated metals, such as copper and zinc, are found in senile plaques mainly composed of Aβ aggregates. These metal ions are coordinated to Aβ and affect its aggregation and toxicity profiles. In this review, we illustrate the current view on molecular insights into the assembly of Aβ peptides in the absence and presence of metal ions as well as the effect of metal ions on their toxicity.

Abstract
We report molecular dynamics simulations of three possible adducts of Fe(II) to the N-terminal 1-16 fragments of the amyloid-β peptide, along with analogous simulations of Cu(II) and Zn(II) adducts. We find that multiple simulations from different starting points reach pseudo-equilibration within 100-300 ns, leading to over 900 ns of equilibrated trajectory data for each system. The specifics of the coordination modes for Fe(II) have only a weak effect on peptide secondary and tertiary structures, and we therefore compare one of these with analogous models of Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes. All share broadly similar structural features, with mixture of coil, turn and bend in the N-terminal region and helical structure for residues 11-16. Within this overall pattern, subtle effects due to changes in metal are evident: Fe(II) complexes are more compact and are more likely to occupy bridge and ribbon regions of Ramachandran maps, while Cu(II) coordination leads to greater occupancy of the poly-proline region. Analysis of representative clusters in terms of molecular mechanics energy and atoms-in-molecules properties indicates similarity of four-coordinate Cu and Zn complexes, compared to five-coordinate Fe complex that exhibits lower stability and weaker metal-ligand bonding.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative disorders are among the most studied issues both in medicine and pharmacy. Despite long and extensive research, there is no effective treatment prescribed for such diseases, including Alzheimer's or Parkinson's. Available data exposes their multi-faceted character that requires a complex and multidirectional approach to treatment. In this case, the most important challenge is to understand the neurodegenerative mechanisms, which should permit the development of more elaborate and effective therapies. In the submitted review, iron and zinc are discussed as important and perfectly possible neurodegenerative factors behind Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. It is commonly known that these elements are present in living organisms and are essential for the proper operation of the body. Still, their influence is positive only when their proper balance is maintained. Otherwise, when any imbalance occurs, this can eventuate in numerous disturbances, among them oxidative stress, accumulation of amyloid β and the formation of neurofibrillary tangles, let alone the increase in α-synuclein concentration. At the same time, available research data reveals certain discrepancies in approaching metal ions as either impassive, helpful, or negative factors influencing the development of neurodegenerative changes. This review outlines selected neurodegenerative disorders, highlights the role of iron and zinc in the human body and discusses cases of their imbalance leading to neurodegenerative changes as shown in vitro and in vivo studies as well as through relevant mechanisms.

Abstract
Because mice and rats do not naturally develop Alzheimer's disease, genetically modified animals are required to study this pathology. This striking difference in terms of disease onset could be due to three alterations in the murine sequence (R5G, Y10F and H13R) of the amyloid-β peptide with respect to the human counterpart. Whether the metal-ion binding properties of the murine peptide are at the origin of such different amyloidogenicity of the two peptides is still an open question. Herein, the main zinc binding site to the murine amyloid-β at physiological pH has been determined through the combination of several spectroscopic and analytical methods applied to a series of six peptides with one or two of the key mutations. These results have been compared with the zinc binding site encountered in the human peptide. A coordination mechanism that demonstrates the importance of the H13R and R5G mutations in the different zinc environments present in the murine and human peptides is proposed. The nature of the minor zinc species present at physiological pH is also suggested for both peptides. Finally, the biological relevance and fallouts of the differences determined in zinc binding to human versus murine amyloid-β are also discussed.

Abstract
Several diseases share misfolding of different peptides and proteins as a key feature for their development. This is the case of important neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases and type II diabetes mellitus. Even more, metal ions such as copper and zinc might play an important role upon interaction with amyloidogenic peptides and proteins, which could impact their aggregation and toxicity abilities. In this review, the different coordination modes proposed for copper and zinc with amyloid-β, α-synuclein and IAPP will be reviewed as well as their impact on the aggregation, and ROS production in the case of copper. In addition, a special focus will be given to the mutations that affect metal binding and lead to familial cases of the diseases. Different modifications of the peptides that have been observed in vivo and could be relevant for the coordination of metal ions are also described.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is known to play an important role in the pathogenesis of a number of diseases. In particular, it is linked to the etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), an age-related neurodegenerative disease and the most common cause of dementia in the elderly. Histopathological hallmarks of AD are intracellular neurofibrillary tangles and extracellular formation of senile plaques composed of the amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) in aggregated form along with metal-ions such as copper, iron or zinc. Redox active metal ions, as for example copper, can catalyze the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) when bound to the amyloid-β (Aβ). The ROS thus produced, in particular the hydroxyl radical which is the most reactive one, may contribute to oxidative damage on both the Aβ peptide itself and on surrounding molecule (proteins, lipids, …). This review highlights the existing link between oxidative stress and AD, and the consequences towards the Aβ peptide and surrounding molecules in terms of oxidative damage. In addition, the implication of metal ions in AD, their interaction with the Aβ peptide and redox properties leading to ROS production are discussed, along with both in vitro and in vivo oxidation of the Aβ peptide, at the molecular level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metal-ion-chelation was suggested to prevent zinc and copper ions-induced amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation and oxidative stress, both implicated in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In a quest for biocompatible metal-ion chelators potentially useful for AD therapy, we previously tested a series of nucleoside 5'-phosphorothioate derivatives as agents for decomposition of Cu(I)/Cu(II)/Zn(II)-Aβ-aggregates, and as inhibitors of OH radicals formation in Cu(I) or Fe(II) /H2O2 solution. Specifically, in our recent study we have identified 2-SMe-ADP(α-S), designated as SAS, as a most promising neuroprotectant. OBJECTIVE To further explore SAS ability to protect the brain from Aβ toxicity both in vitro and in vivo. METHODS We evaluated SAS ability to decompose or inhibit the formation of Aβ42-M(II) aggregates, and rescue primary neurons and astrocytes from Aβ42 toxicity. Furthermore, we aimed at exploring the therapeutic effect of SAS on behavioral and cognitive deficits in the 5XFAD mouse model of AD. RESULTS We found that SAS can rescue primary culture of neurons and astrocytes from Aβ42 toxicity and to inhibit the formation and dissolve Aβ42-Zn(II)/Cu(II) aggregates. Furthermore, we show that SAS treatment can prevent behavioral disinhibition and ameliorate spatial working memory deficits in 5XFAD mice. Notably, the mice were treated at the age of 2 months, before the onset of AD symptoms, for a duration of 2 months, while the effect was demonstrated at the age of 6 months. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that SAS has the potential to delay progression of core pathological characteristics of AD in the 5XFAD mouse model.

Abstract
While metal ions such as copper and zinc are essential in biology, they are also linked to several amyloid-related diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Zinc and copper can indeed modify the aggregation pathways of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide, the key component encountered in AD. In addition, the redox active copper ions do produce Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) when bound to the Aβ peptide. While Cu(i) or Cu(ii) or Zn(ii) coordination to the Aβ has been extensively studied in the last ten years, characterization of hetero-bimetallic Aβ complexes is still scarce. This is also true for the metal induced Aβ aggregation and ROS production, for which studies on the mutual influence of the copper and zinc ions are currently appearing. Last but not least, zinc can strongly interfere in therapeutic approaches relying on copper detoxification. This will be exemplified with a biological lead, namely metallothioneins, and with synthetic ligands.

Abstract
The role of Cu and Zn ions in Alzheimer's disease is linked to the consequences of their coordination to the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide, i.e. to the modulation of Aβ aggregation and to the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), two central events of the so-called amyloid cascade. The role of both ions in Aβ aggregation is still controversial. Conversely the higher toxicity of the redox competent Cu ions (compared to the redox inert Zn ions) in ROS production is acknowledged. Thus the Cu ions can be considered as the main therapeutic target. Because Zn ions are present in higher quantity than Cu ions in the synaptic cleft, they can prevent detoxification of Cu by chelators unless they have an unusually high Cu over Zn selectivity. We describe a proof-of-concept study where the role of Zn on the metal swap reaction between two prototypical ligands and the Cu(Aβ) species has been investigated by several complementary spectroscopic techniques (UV-Vis, EPR and XANES). The first ligand has a higher Cu over Zn selectivity relative to the one of Aβ peptide while the second one exhibits a classical Cu over Zn selectivity. How Zn impacts the effect of the ligands on Cu-induced ROS production and Aβ aggregation is also reported.

Abstract
The Zn(II) ion has been linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD) due to its ability to modulate the aggregating properties of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide, where Aβ aggregation is a central event in the etiology of the disease. Delineating Zn(II) binding properties to Aβ is thus a prerequisite to better grasp its potential role in AD. Because of (i) the flexibility of the Aβ peptide, (ii) the multiplicity of anchoring sites, and (iii) the silent nature of the Zn(II) ion in most classical spectroscopies, this is a difficult task. To overcome these difficulties, we have investigated the impact of peptide alterations (mutations, N-terminal acetylation) on the Zn(Aβ) X-ray absorption spectroscopy fingerprint and on the Zn(II)-induced modifications of the Aβ peptides' NMR signatures. We propose a tetrahedrally bound Zn(II) ion, in which the coordination sphere is made by two His residues and two carboxylate side chains. Equilibria between equivalent ligands for one Zn(II) binding position have also been observed, the predominant site being made by the side chains of His6, His13 or His14, Glu11, and Asp1 or Glu3 or Asp7, with a slight preference for Asp1.

Abstract
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a highly complex disease involving a broad range of clinical, cellular, and biochemical manifestations that are currently not understood in combination. This has led to many views of AD, e.g. the amyloid, tau, presenilin, oxidative stress, and metal hypotheses. The amyloid hypothesis has dominated the field with its assumption that buildup of pathogenic β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide causes disease. This paradigm has been criticized, yet most data suggest that Aβ plays a key role in the disease. Here, a new loss-of-function hypothesis is synthesized that accounts for the anomalies of the amyloid hypothesis, e.g. the curious pathogenicity of the Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio, the loss of Aβ caused by presenilin mutation, the mixed phenotypes of APP mutations, the poor clinical-biochemical correlations for genetic variant carriers, and the failure of Aβ reducing drugs. The amyloid-loss view accounts for recent findings on the structure and chemical features of Aβ variants and their coupling to human patient data. The lost normal function of APP/Aβ is argued to be metal transport across neuronal membranes, a view with no apparent anomalies and substantially more explanatory power than the gain-of-function amyloid hypothesis. In the loss-of-function scenario, the central event of Aβ aggregation is interpreted as a loss of soluble, functional monomer Aβ rather than toxic overload of oligomers. Accordingly, new research models and treatment strategies should focus on remediation of the functional amyloid balance, rather than strict containment of Aβ, which, for reasons rationalized in this review, has failed clinically.

Abstract
α-synuclein is an abundant presynaptic protein that is important for regulation of synaptic vesicle trafficking, and whose misfolding plays a key role in Parkinson's disease. While α-synuclein is disordered in solution, it folds into a helical conformation when bound to synaptic vesicles. Stabilization of helical, folded α-synuclein might therefore interfere with α-synuclein-induced neurotoxicity. Here we show that several small molecules, which delay aggregation of α-synuclein in solution, including the Parkinson's disease drug selegiline, fail to interfere with misfolding of vesicle-bound α-synuclein. In contrast, the porphyrin phtalocyanine tetrasulfonate directly binds to vesicle-bound α-synuclein, stabilizes its helical conformation and thereby delays pathogenic misfolding and aggregation. Our study suggests that small-molecule-mediated stabilization of helical vesicle-bound α-synuclein opens new possibilities to target Parkinson's disease and related synucleinopathies.

Abstract
Platinum phenanthroline complexes have been found to inhibit Aβ aggregation and reduce Aβ caused neurotoxicity. Our previous results revealed the synergistic roles of phenanthroline ligand and Pt(ii) coordination in the inhibition of Aβ aggregation. In this work, the reactions of PtCl2(phen) with metal bound Aβ complexes were investigated. HPLC results show that the copper coordination decreases the reaction rate of PtCl2(phen) with Aβ1-16 and influences the distribution of products on HPLC profiles. EPR results reveal that Cu(2+) remains coordinated to the Aβ peptide upon the binding of [Pt(phen)](2+), however, the Cu(2+) coordination sites are changed. The formation of bimetallic coordination complex [Pt(phen)+Aβ1-16+Cu(II)] was confirmed by ESI-MS. Tandem MS analysis shows that, similar to the reaction of apo-Aβ peptide, the His6/His14 chelation is also the preferred binding mode for [Pt(phen)](2+) in the presence of copper ions. EPR spectra suggest that the binding of [Pt(phen)](2+) alters the copper coordination from mode I to mode II in Aβ. Tandem MS analysis indicates that His13 and N-terminal amine could be involved in the Cu(2+) coordination in the bimetallic adduct. Similar results were observed in the reaction of Zn(2+) bound Aβ peptide, although the different zinc binding residues were detected in the bimetallic complex. These results indicate that the binding of platinum complex disturbs the most favorable coordination sphere of Cu(2+)/Zn(2+) and turns these metal ions to the secondary coordination site on Aβ. The release of Cu(2+)/Zn(2+) occurs at low pH. This result suggests that the binding of [Pt(phen)](2+) scaffold could interfere with the binding of Zn(2+) and Cu(2+) to Aβ, thus reducing the metal-induced Aβ aggregation and toxicity.

Abstract
Aggregation of amyloid-β (Aβ) by self-assembly into oligomers or amyloids is a central event in Alzheimer's disease. Coordination of transition-metal ions, mainly copper and zinc, to Aβ occurs in vivo and modulates the aggregation process. A survey of the impact of Cu(II) and Zn(II) on the aggregation of Aβ reveals some general trends: (i) Zn(II) and Cu(II) at high micromolar concentrations and/or in a large superstoichiometric ratio compared to Aβ have a tendency to promote amorphous aggregations (precipitation) over the ordered formation of fibrillar amyloids by self-assembly; (ii) metal ions affect the kinetics of Aβ aggregations, with the most significant impact on the nucleation phase; (iii) the impact is metal-specific; (iv) Cu(II) and Zn(II) affect the concentrations and/or the types of aggregation intermediates formed; (v) the binding of metal ions changes both the structure and the charge of Aβ. The decrease in the overall charge at physiological pH increases the overall driving force for aggregation but may favor more precipitation over fibrillation, whereas the induced structural changes seem more relevant for the amyloid formation.

Abstract
Five Pt(II) complexes were tested for their ability to interfere in Cu(II) or Zn(II) coordination to the Aβ peptide. Two of them induce modifications of the Cu(II) sphere but not the associated Cu(Aβ) ROS production. In contrast, they do completely preclude Zn induced Aβ aggregation.

Abstract
Combined coordination of Zn(II) and Cu(I) or Cu(II) to the amyloid-β peptide has been investigated using XANES, EPR and NMR spectroscopies. While Zn(II) does alter Cu(II) binding to Aβ, this has no effect on (Aβ)Cu induced ROS production and associated cell toxicity.

Abstract
Metal ions Cu, Zn and Fe, seem to play a pivotal role in Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. In order to understand this in a broader sense, one has to considerer the peculiarities of metal metabolism in the brain compared to most other tissues, as well as the importance of the redox active metal ions, Fe and Cu, in oxygen metabolism and the connected oxidative stress.

Abstract
Self-assembly of amyloidogenic peptides and their metal complexes are of multiple interest including their association with several neurological diseases. Therefore, a better understanding of the role of metal ions in the aggregation process is of broad interest. We report pH-dependent structural and aggregation studies on Zn(II) binding to the amyloidogenic peptide Ab11-28. The results suggest that coordination of the N-terminal amine to Zn(II) is responsible for the inhibition of amyloid formation and the overall charge for amorphous aggregates.
