A lifespan staging model of basal forebrain cholinergic vulnerability
Abstract The cholinergic neurons of the basal forebrain are among the most vulnerable cell types to age‐ and Alzheimer's disease‐related dysfunction and neurodegeneration. However, the biological bases of basal forebrain cholinergic vulnerability (the why) and the temporal sequence (the how) have yet to be fully resolved.

Dissociation of Cerebral Blood Flow and Femoral Artery Blood Pressure Pulsatility After Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation in a Rodent Model: Implications for Neurological Recovery. [PDF]
Background Impaired neurological function affects 85% to 90% of cardiac arrest (CA) survivors. Pulsatile blood flow may play an important role in neurological recovery after CA.

Abstract INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate whether sleep quality predicts cognitive/functional decline, and whether Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology modifies these relationships. METHODS The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was administered to 326 older adults (113 cognitively normal, 192 mild cognitive impairment, 21 dementia; mean age = 66.

Meningeal Lymphatic and Glymphatic Structures in a Pelagic Delphinid (Delphinus delphis)
The glymphatic system, an analog of the peripheral lymphatic system in the brain, and the meningeal lymphatic system are critical to central nervous system health.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Variants in the aquaporin‐4 gene (AQP4) have been associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, cognition, and brain amyloid beta (Aβ) and may affect the sleep and Aβ relationship. Their association with other AD‐related phenotypes/disease progression remain largely unknown.

Association of imaging‐defined brain age with disease severity and adverse outcomes in CADASIL
Abstract INTRODUCTION Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is caused by cysteine‐altering NOTCH3 variants. We examined whether neuroimaging‐defined brain age is altered in CADASIL and its association with disease severity and outcomes.

Morphology of the glymphatic and meningeal lymphatic structures of the bottlenose dolphin
In humans and mice, the glymphatic system, critical for central nervous system (CNS) health, relies on cardiorespiratory coupling, but has not yet been investigated in a diving mammal that routinely experiences apnea, bradycardia, and peripheral ...
