Arterial Spin‐Labeling MRI at the Cortical‐CSF Interface: A Novel Biomarker in Alzheimer Disease
ABSTRACT Background/Objective Arterial spin‐labeling (ASL) MRI can measure perfusion signal adjacent to CSF spaces and may provide information regarding CSF‐adjacent water transport physiology. We developed an automated pipeline to extract cortical‐CSF interface (IF) perfusion for comparison between Alzheimer disease (AD) and cognitively normal ...

The copper-amyloid-beta-peptide complex of Alzheimer’s disease: affinity, structure, fibril formation and toxicity [PDF]
PhDSenile plaques of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients are composed primarily of the amyloid-β-peptide peptide (Aβ), and within these plaques Cu2+ ions are found concentrated and directly bound to Aβ.

Plasmacytoma of the Sternum with Amyloid Deposition – A Cytological Diagnosis
Plasmacytoma with amyloid deposition to be diagnosed on cytology is rare. In the absence of typical clinical presentation and radiological findings, the diagnosis of plasmacytoma may not be suspected.

White Matter and Perivascular Imaging Changes in Alzheimer's Disease and Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy
ABSTRACT Objective Peak‐width of skeletonized mean diffusivity (PSMD) and diffusion tensor imaging–analysis along the perivascular space (DTI‐ALPS), reflecting white matter integrity and glymphatic function, are altered in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Diffuse MRI Edema Predicts Relapse in Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy–Related Inflammation
ABSTRACT Objective To identify MRI predictors of relapse and quantify relapse and mortality risk in cerebral amyloid angiopathy–related inflammation (CAA‐RI). A secondary objective was to assess the association between mycophenolate mofetil use and relapse risk. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of 36 patients with CAA‐RI treated at the

The transition of peptides or proteins along a misfolding continuum from soluble functional states to pathological aggregates, to ultimately deposit as amyloid fibrils, is a process that underlies an expanding group of human diseases—collectively known ...

Sex Differences in Autophagy Contribute to Female Vulnerability in Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, with over 5. 4 million cases in the US alone (Alzheimer's Association, 2016). Clinically, AD is defined by the presence of plaques composed of Aβ and neurofibrillary pathology composed of the ...

Regulation of the metabolism of the Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein by contactin 5 and BIN1 [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive form of dementia, which currently has no cure. The metabolism of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is an important determinant in the development of AD.

Herpes simplex virus interferes with amyloid precursor protein processing. [PDF]
Background The early events underlying Alzheimer's disease (AD) remain uncertain, although environmental factors may be involved. Work in this laboratory has shown that the combination of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) in brain and carriage of the ...
