Young Adult Microglial Deletion of C1q Reduces Engulfment of Synapses and Partially Mitigates Cognitive Impairment in an Aggressive Alzheimer's Disease Mouse Model. [PDF]
Young adult deletion of microglial C1q reduced engulfment of Vglut1+ synapses and mitigated spatial cognitive deficits at 10 months of age in the amyloidopathy Arctic mouse model of AD. Neither fibrillar amyloid plaques nor soluble or insoluble Aβ levels in the hippocampus were affected by young adult microglial loss of C1q despite reduced phagocytosis

Elimination of tau tangles and soluble aggregates with the small molecule ACI-16664 prevents neurodegeneration in vivo. [PDF]
Abstract INTRODUCTION Pathological tau aggregates are key therapeutic targets in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but current approaches face limitations including poor intracellular penetration, lack of selectivity for aggregated over physiological tau, or reliance on invasive administration.

Biochemical Characterization of a Kunitz-Type Protease Inhibitor From Mimosa regnellii and Its Effects on Melanoma Cell Viability and Angiogenesis. [PDF]
A Kunitz‐type serine protease inhibitor (JTI) purified from Mimosa regnellii seeds selectively targets melanoma cells. JTI triggers mitochondrial apoptosis, increases ROS and Ca2+ levels, arrests the cell cycle, and suppresses migration and angiogenesis without affecting healthy cells.

Age and Maturation Stage Linked Consequences of Fibrinogen on Human Oligodendroglia. [PDF]
This study shows that the blood‐derived molecule, Fibrinogen, has a differential effect on human Oligodendroglial (OL) cells. Fibrinogen, when added in vitro, leads to aberrant differentiation of OL‐precursors towards an astrocytic fate. On the other hand, when added into the culture of mature OLs, fibrinogen increases myelination capacity.

ABSTRACT Emerging evidence links COVID‐19 to the predisposition of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the relationship between long COVID and prodromal PD‐like features remains unclear, particularly in long COVID participants with dream‐enactment behaviours (DEBs) that may be suggestive of possible REM sleep behaviour disorder.

Enhancing Maturation of Human Neuromuscular Organoids via Electrical Stimulation
A framework for on‐demand and non‐invasive exposure of human neuromuscular organoids (NMOs) to electrical stimuli is established to promote their maturation. The robustness and effectiveness of different stimulation regimes are evaluated via thorough characterization of organoid tissue structure and contraction capacity. Chronic electrical stimulation,
