Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

open access: yesNetwork: Computation in Neural Systems, 2011
Over the last three decades, advances in biochemical pathology and human genetics have illuminated one of the most enigmatic subjects in biomedicine--neurodegeneration. Eponymic diseases of the nervous system such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases that were long characterized by mechanistic ignorance have yielded striking progress ...

Modifiable psychosocial risk factors and delayed onset of dementia in older populations: analysis of two prospective US cohorts

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2022
Objective Preventing Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) fundamentally equates to delaying onset. Thus, we quantified associations of modifiable, psychosocial risk factors to years of delayed onset of dementia.Design Two prospective cohorts (n=2860) with negative ...

Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2000
Use of valid diagnostic criteria is extremely important in the recognition of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease should be started on a cholinesterase inhibitor and possibly anti-inflammatory agents, antioxidants (vitamin E or selegiline), and estrogen replacement therapy (for postmenopausal women).

Plasma microRNAs as potential biomarkers in early Alzheimer disease expression

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The microRNAs (miRNAs) are potential biomarkers for complex pathologies due to their involvement in the regulation of several pathways. Alzheimer Disease (AD) requires new biomarkers in minimally invasive samples that allow an early diagnosis. The aim of

Limited Substrate Specificity of PS/γ-Secretase Is Supported by Novel Multiplexed FRET Analysis in Live Cells

open access: yesBiosensors, 2021
Presenilin (PS)/γ-secretase is an aspartyl protease that processes a wide range of transmembrane proteins such as the amyloid precursor protein (APP) and Notch1, playing essential roles in normal biological events and diseases.

GPS driving: a digital biomarker for preclinical Alzheimer disease

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Alzheimer disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. Preclinical AD is the period during which early AD brain changes are present but cognitive symptoms have not yet manifest.
