Effective components of Chinese herbs reduce central nervous system function decline induced by iron overload

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Abnormally increased levels of iron in the brain trigger cascade amplification in Alzheimer′s disease patients, resulting in neuronal death. This study investigated whether components extracted from the Chinese herbs epimedium herb, milkvetch root and ...

Clinical Validation of Plasma p‐217tau in Neurological Diseases

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma p‐217tau is a minimally invasive but specific biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its disease specificity remains to be clinically evaluated. We validated the reliability of the p‐217tau biomarker in 12 other neurological diseases.

Modification of γ‐secretase by nitrosative stress links neuronal ageing to sporadic Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2012
Inherited familial Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by small increases in the ratio of Aβ42 versus Aβ40 peptide which is thought to drive the amyloid plaque formation in the brain of these patients.

The effect of red grape juice on Alzheimer′s disease in rats

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2012
Background: Alzheimer′s disease is a neurodegenerative disease appearing as a result of free radicals and oxidative stress. Antioxidants agents boost memory and control Alzheimer′s disease.

Von Economo Neuron Loss in Frontotemporal Dementia: A Meta‐Analysis of Neuropathological Studies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Von Economo neurons (VENs) have been reported to be vulnerable to neurodegeneration in frontotemporal dementia (FTD), particularly the behavioral variant (bvFTD), but these findings have not been systematically assessed across independent brain banks.

Computer‐assisted prediction of clinical progression in the earliest stages of AD

open access: yesAlzheimer’s & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring, 2018
Introduction Individuals with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) are at increased risk for clinical progression. We studied how combining different diagnostic tests can help to identify individuals who are likely to show clinical progression.

Deregulation of neuronal miRNAs induced by amyloid-β or TAU pathology

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2018
Background Despite diverging levels of amyloid-β (Aβ) and TAU pathology, different mouse models, as well as sporadic AD patients show predictable patterns of episodic memory loss.

Effect of Non-Coding RNA on Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing of Alzheimer Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A large amount of hidden biological information is contained in the human genome, which is not expressed or revealed in the form of proteins; the usual end product form of gene expression.

SPG4 and Dementia: Expanding the Clinical Spectrum

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of disorders characterized by progressive spasticity and lower limb weakness, with mutations in SPG4/SPAST being the most common cause. Detailed studies and clinical and molecular comparisons across different populations are missing.

Nursing Home Chain Affiliation and Its Impact on Specialty Service Designation for Alzheimer Disease

open access: yesInquiry: The Journal of Health Care Organization, Provision, and Financing, 2018
Specialty care units (SCUs) in nursing homes (NHs) grew in popularity during the 1990s to attract residents while national policies and treatment paradigms changed. Alzheimer disease has consistently been the dominant form of SCU. This study explored the
