Alzheimer Disease is Associated with Isotropic Ocular Enlargement [PDF]
Recent studies have documented ocular changes in dementia patients, especially Alzheimer Disease (AD). In this study, we explored the change of eye size and eye shape in dementia, including AD patients. The eyeball volume and diameters were estimated via T1-weighted brain magnetic resonance (MR) images in the OASIS-3 database which included 83 AD, 247 ...

Chromosomal breaks at the origin of small tandem DNA duplications
Small tandem DNA duplications form a specific mutational signature frequently found in human disease alleles and cancer genes. Here we hypothesize that these duplications mainly arise at chromosomal DNA breaks that result from two closely located single‐stranded nicks, through error‐prone repair by the non‐homologous end‐joining pathway. Abstract Small

Evidence of emerging BBB changes in mid‐age apolipoprotein E epsilon‐4 carriers
This study demonstrated a tendency towards BBB permeability in APOEε4 participants emerging from mid‐age, with quantitative differences observable on a number of the measures. Results from this study may help identify at‐risk populations at an early stage which will be crucial in facilitating the development of early interventions to change the ...

Accounting for iron-related off-target binding effects of 18F-AV1451 PET in the evaluation of cognition and microstructure in APOE-e4+ MCI [PDF]
The pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is characterized by the presence of beta-amyloid extracellular plaques and neurofibrillary tangles containing hyper-phosphorylated tau. Individuals carrying the apolipoprotein E-e4 (APOE-e4) allele are at increased risk of cognitive decline and developing AD pathology.

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Apolipoprotein E3 Lipid Nanodiscs [PDF]
Nanodiscs are binary discoidal complexes of a phospholipid bilayer circumscribed by belt-like helical scaffold proteins. Using coarse-grained and all-atom molecular dynamics simulations, we explore the stability, size, and structure of nanodiscs formed between the N-terminal domain of apolipoprotein E3 (apoE3-NT) and variable number of 1,2-dimyristoyl ...

An extension of a theorem of Zermelo [PDF]
We show that if (M,E,E') satisfies the first order Zermelo-Fraenkel axioms of set theory when the membership relation is E and also when the membership relation is E', and in both cases the formulas are allowed to contain both E and E', then (M,E) and (M,E') are isomorphic, and the isomorphism is definable in (M,E,E').

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism
MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...

Lipid metabolism in pancreatic cancer: emerging roles and potential targets
Abstract Pancreatic cancer is one of the most serious health issues in developed and developing countries, with a 5‐year overall survival rate currently <9%. Patients typically present with advanced disease due to vague symptoms or lack of screening for early cancer detection.

Integrating ancestry, differential methylation analysis, and machine learning, we identified robust epigenetic signature genes (ESGs) and Core‐ESGs in Black and White women with endometrial cancer. Core‐ESGs (namely APOBEC1 and PLEKHG5) methylation levels were significantly associated with survival, with tumors from high African ancestry (THA) showing ...
