NOTCH3 CADASIL Variant Receptor Aggregation Requires NOTCH3 Wild-Type Receptors: Identification of Highly Selective Inhibitors That Block the Process. [PDF]
CADASIL is the major cause of early‐onset stroke and cognitive dysfunction, including dementia. It is caused by mutations in the NOTCH3 receptor that result in the formation of protein aggregates in the small vessel walls of the brain. We demonstrated that NOTCH3 CADASIL variant receptor aggregation is strictly dependent on interactions with NOTCH3 ...

Vascular smooth muscle cell loss, but not neuroinflammation, drives cerebrovascular reactivity impairment in Alzheimer's disease. [PDF]
Abstract INTRODUCTION Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) impairment is a key feature of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), but its mechanistic basis remains unclear. This study examined whether vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) loss, rather than amyloidosis or neuroinflammation, underlies CVR deficits.

Comorbidity Between Recurrent Major Depressive Disorder and CADASIL: A Case Report With a Brief Review of Published Cases. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) may underlie mood disorders by directly affecting cerebral vascular function and neural networks, thereby contributing to or worsening mood symptoms.

Assessment of Small Vessel Density Changes in Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy With Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalophy (CADASIL) by High-Resolution Black-Blood MRI. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Direct assessments of cerebral small vessels in Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) remain a challenge. Purpose To investigate changes of cerebral small vessels in CADASIL using iso‐0.5 mm black‐blood MRI. Study Type Case control study.

PSMD‐2: A fully automated marker for longitudinal assessment of cerebrovascular white matter injury [PDF]
Abstract Background Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is highly prevalent in older adults and a key comorbidity in neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. While conventional MRI markers (e.g. white matter hyperintensities) capture late SVD stages, diffusion MRI metrics are sensitive to early SVD‐related brain changes, making them ...

Iron dysregulation may attenuate cognitive performance in patients with CADASIL. However, the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Whether white matter microstructural changes mediate these processes is largely unclear.
