Complement C3 mediates adolescent social isolation‐induced hippocampal synaptic deficits and sex‐specific emotional dysfunction

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Adolescent social isolation disrupts hippocampal function and exacerbates emotional symptoms, with sex‐specific patterns, as shown by human studies. In mice, social isolation decreased hippocampal synaptic density and calcium signaling, upregulated complement proteins, and activated complement‐mediated microglial synaptic phagocytosis.

The Role of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS), Diffusion‐Tensor‐Imaging (DTI) and Structural MRI in the Alzheimer's Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment Diagnosis: A Review

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurological disorders affecting older adults, with approximately 7.2 million cases only in the United States. This number is projected to increase to 13.8 million in the United States by 2060, leading to increased expenditures for healthcare, long‐term care and hospice services. Consequently,
