Therapeutic Targeting of Casein Kinase 1δ/ε in an Alzheimer’s Disease Mouse Model
Bibliographic record
Abstract
SUMMARY Sleep disturbances and memory impairment are common symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Given that the circadian clock regulates sleep, hippocampal function, and neurodegeneration, it represents a therapeutic target against AD. Casein kinase 1δ/ε (CK1δ/ε) are clock regulators and overexpressed in AD brains, making them viable targets to improve sleep and cognition. We assessed the effects of a small molecule CK1δ/ε inhibitor (PF-670462) in a cellular model of circadian clocks and in 3xTg-AD mice. Mass spectrometry–based proteomic analyses revealed that PF-670462 treatment in vitro upregulated multiple proteins that are downregulated in AD, while administration in 3xTg-AD mice reversed hippocampal proteomic alterations in diverse AD-associated and clock-regulated pathways, including synaptic plasticity and amyloid precursor protein processing. Furthermore, PF-670462 rescued working memory and normalized behavioural circadian rhythms in 3xTg-AD mice. Our study provides proof of concept for CK1δ/ε inhibition and direct clock modulation against AD-related proteomic changes, memory impairment, and circadian disturbances.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
