Nanoscopic Mapping of the Extracellular Space in Amyloid Plaque‐rich Cortex

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The extracellular space and diffusion around amyloid plaques are examined using shadow imaging and single‐particle tracking. Increased diffusivity is found near plaques, extracellular matrix alterations, and plaque core penetrability that varies with amyloid phenotype.

NIR-II nanoprobes for investigating the glymphatic system function under anesthesia and stroke injury

open access: yesJournal of Nanobiotechnology
The glymphatic system plays an important role in the transportation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the clearance of metabolite waste in brain. However, current imaging modalities for studying the glymphatic system are limited.

A mixed finite element method for nearly incompressible multiple-network poroelasticity

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper, we present and analyze a new mixed finite element formulation of a general family of quasi-static multiple-network poroelasticity (MPET) equations.

The effects of peripheral and central high insulin on brain insulin signaling and amyloid-β in young and old APP/PS1 mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hyperinsulinemia is a risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). In vitro experiments describe potential connections between insulin, insulin signaling, and amyloid-β (Aβ), but in vivo experiments are needed to validate these relationships ...

Integrating Astrocytes in the Sleep–Wake Cycle: The Time Is Now

open access: yesBioEssays, EarlyView.
Astrocytes actively regulate sleep homeostatic and circadian rheostatic processes, underpinning the sleep–wake cycle. By acting as context‐dependent integrators of internal state and rhythmic environmental inputs, they modulate the encoding properties of neuronal circuitries and contribute to salient temporal representations in the brain.

Targeting the glymphatic system to promote α-synuclein clearance: a novel therapeutic strategy for Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
The excessive buildup of neurotoxic α-synuclein plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease, highlighting the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies to promote α-synuclein clearance, particularly given the current lack of ...

Beneficial effects of low alcohol exposure, but adverse effects of high alcohol intake on glymphatic function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Prolonged intake of excessive amounts of ethanol is known to have adverse effects on the central nervous system (CNS). Here we investigated the effects of acute and chronic ethanol exposure and withdrawal from chronic ethanol exposure on glymphatic ...

Differential glymphatic dysfunction and memory correlation in temporal lobe epilepsy subtypes

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aims to evaluate the glymphatic system (GS) in different temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) subtypes using diffusion tensor imaging analysis along the perivascular space (DTI‐ALPS) and to explore its correlation with clinical factors and memory performance.

Tea and Blood–Brain Barrier Homeostasis: Potential Mechanisms and Improvement Strategies

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
Abstract The blood–brain barrier (BBB), a selective interface regulating cerebral substance exchange, plays a crucial role in maintaining cognitive function and metabolic balance. While tea consumption has been traditionally associated with health benefits, its specific effects on BBB integrity warrant systematic investigation. This review demonstrates

Exploring neurodegenerative disorders using advanced magnetic resonance imaging of the glymphatic system

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry
The glymphatic system, a macroscopic waste clearance system in the brain, is crucial for maintaining neural health. It facilitates the exchange of cerebrospinal and interstitial fluid, aiding the clearance of soluble proteins and metabolites and ...
