Molecular and Genetic Determinants of Glioma Cell Invasion. [PDF]
A diffusely invasive nature is a major obstacle in treating a malignant brain tumor, "diffuse glioma", which prevents neurooncologists from surgically removing the tumor cells even in combination with chemotherapy and radiation.

ABSTRACT Objective The Apolipoprotein (APOE) ε4 allele is the strongest genetic risk factor for late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, many ε4 carriers remain cognitively intact into old age. Leveraging plasma neuron‐derived extracellular vesicles (NDEVs), we sought to identify biomarkers of cognitive resilience and their interplay with APOE ...

Molecular mechanisms separating two axonal pathways during embryonic development of the avian optic tectum [PDF]
During embryonic development of the avian optic tectum, retinal and tectobulbar axons form an orthogonal array of nerve processes. Growing axons of both tracts are transiently very closely apposed to each other. Despite this spatial proximity, axons from

Plasma Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Correlates With Brain Metal Burden in Wilson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Neuroinflammation driven by extracellular copper contributes to neuronal damage in Wilson's disease (WD). This study investigated the relationship between brain metal burden and peripheral neuroinflammation markers in WD. Methods We conducted a cross‐sectional study involving 89 participants, including patients with WD (n = 63 ...

Neural cell adhesion molecule in human serum. Increased levels in dementia of the Alzheimer type
Memory impairment is a process associated with alterations in neuronal plasticity, synapses formation, and stabilization. As the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) plays a key role in synaptic bond stabilization, we analyzed the usefulness of soluble ...

Expanding Hereditary Spastic Paraplegias Limits: Biallelic SPAST Variants in Cerebral Palsy Mimics
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSP) are rare neurodegenerative disorders marked by spasticity and lower limb weakness. The most common type, SPG4, is usually autosomal dominant and caused by SPAST gene variants, typically presenting as pure HSP.

Background: Dynein is a microtubule motor that can also tether dynamic microtubule plus-ends. Results: Neural cell adhesion molecule isoform-180 (NCAM180) binds directly to dynein, facilitating microtubule tethering at the cortex and enhancing cell-cell ...

Targeting RAGE with Nanobodies for Molecular Imaging of Cancers and Alzheimer's Disease
RAGE‐specific nanobodies were isolated via phage display and characterized by ELISA, cell ELISA, and SPR. In vivo imaging in renal carcinoma and Alzheimer's disease mouse models demonstrated that NbF8, the highest‐affinity clone, selectively targeted RAGE‐overexpressing tumors and brain tissues, highlighting its potential as a molecular imaging agent ...
