Associations of Stroke With Risk of Epilepsy: Results From the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To estimate the risk of epilepsy associated with stroke in a community‐based cohort, with consideration of stroke type, number, and severity. Methods Data from 15,100 Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study participants without stroke at baseline (1987–1989) were analyzed through 12/31/2022.

Rebuilding insight into the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease through new blood-brain barrier models

Neural Regeneration Research
The blood-brain barrier is a unique function of the microvasculature in the brain parenchyma that maintains homeostasis in the central nervous system. Blood-brain barrier breakdown is a common pathology in various neurological diseases, such as Alzheimer'

Translating a Preclinically Tested 15 Hz rTMS Protocol to Humans With Chronic Spinal Cord Injury: A Safety and Feasibility Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non‐invasive brain stimulation strategy with a demonstrated potential to reinforce the residual pathways after a spinal cord injury (SCI). A preclinically tested high‐frequency (15 Hz) rTMS (15 Hz rTMS) protocol was shown to induce corticospinal tract axon regeneration growth ...

Association of Elevated Serum S100A8/A9 Levels and Cognitive Impairment in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Cognitive impairment (CI) is common in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Despite its prevalence, the immune mechanisms are not well understood. We previously reported elevated serum levels of S100A8/A9 and MMP‐9 in SLE patients with CI.

Targeting RAGE with Nanobodies for Molecular Imaging of Cancers and Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
RAGE‐specific nanobodies were isolated via phage display and characterized by ELISA, cell ELISA, and SPR. In vivo imaging in renal carcinoma and Alzheimer's disease mouse models demonstrated that NbF8, the highest‐affinity clone, selectively targeted RAGE‐overexpressing tumors and brain tissues, highlighting its potential as a molecular imaging agent ...

Beyond wrecking a wall: revisiting the concept of blood–brain barrier breakdown in ischemic stroke

Neural Regeneration Research
The blood–brain barrier constitutes a dynamic and interactive boundary separating the central nervous system and the peripheral circulation. It tightly modulates the ion transport and nutrient influx, while restricting the entry of harmful factors, and ...

Permeability of the Blood-Brain Barrier and Transport of Nanobodies Across the Blood-Brain Barrier

Folia Veterinaria, 2018
The presence of a blood-brain barrier (BBB) and a blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier presents animmense challenge for effective delivery of therapeutics to the central nervous system. Many potential drugs, which are effective at their site of action, have

Effects of Amyloid Beta (Aβ) Oligomers on Blood–Brain Barrier Using a 3D Microfluidic Vasculature-on-a-Chip Model

Applied Sciences
The disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is largely influenced by amyloid beta (Aβ). In this study, we developed a high-throughput microfluidic BBB model devoid of a physical membrane, featuring endothelial cells interacting with an extracellular matrix (ECM). This paper focuses on the impact of varying concentrations
