Positron Emission Tomography in Animal Models of Alzheimer's Disease Amyloidosis: Translational Implications [PDF]
Animal models of Alzheimer's disease amyloidosis that recapitulate cerebral amyloid-beta pathology have been widely used in preclinical research and have greatly enabled the mechanistic understanding of Alzheimer's disease and the development of ...

Metabolism and signaling crosstalk in glioblastoma progression and therapy resistance
Glioblastoma is one of the most lethal human cancers with no effective treatment nowadays. Here, we review the increasing amount of evidence supporting the connection between cell signaling deregulation and metabolic reprogramming as a key event in glioblastoma resistance to cancer therapy.

Small animal biomagnetism applications [PDF]
The functioning of the human brain, nervous system and heart is based on the conduction of electrical signals. These electrical signals also create magnetic fields which extend outside the human body. Highly sensitive magnetometers, such as superconducting quantum interference device magnetometers or optically pumped magnetometers, placed outside the ...

Consistency of spatial dynamics of HIV-1 and HCV among HIV-1/HCV coinfected drug users in China
Background As the transmission routes of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are similar, previous studies based on separate research on HIV-1 and HCV assumed a similar transmission pattern.

Circadian Disruption and Metabolic Disease: Findings from Animal Models [PDF]
Social opportunities and work demands have caused humans to become increasingly active during the late evening hours, leading to a shift from the predominantly diurnal lifestyle of our ancestors to a more nocturnal one.

Viral-induced neurodegenerative disease. [PDF]
Viral etiology has been postulated in a variety of neurological diseases in humans, including multiple sclerosis. Several experimental animal models of viral-induced neurodegenerative disease provide insight into potential host- and pathogen-dependent ...
