Cognitive Resilience in Apolipoprotein ε4 Carrier Women Predicted by Neuron‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Significantly improved cell affinity of polydimethylsiloxane enabled by a surface-modified strategy with chemical coupling

open access: yesJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2022
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a commonly used insulation/packaging material for implantable neural electrodes. Nevertheless, the PDMS-initiated tissue response would lead to the deterioration of the electrode performances post-implantation, owing to its

Segmental migration of trunk neural crest: time-lapse analysis reveals a role for PNA-binding molecules [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Trunk neural crest cells migrate through the somites in a striking segmental fashion, entering the rostral but not caudal sclerotome, via cues intrinsic to the somites.

GBM heterogeneity as a function of variable epidermal growth factor receptor variant III activity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Abnormal activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) due to a deletion of exons 2-7 of EGFR (EGFRvIII) is a common alteration in glioblastoma (GBM). While this alteration can drive gliomagenesis, tumors harboring EGFRvIII are heterogeneous.

Targeting RAGE with Nanobodies for Molecular Imaging of Cancers and Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Embryonic to adult conversion of neural cell adhesion molecules in normal and staggerer mice.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1982
The neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM) has an unusually high amount of sialic acid (28-35 g/100 g of polypeptide) and shows microheterogeneity in electrophoretic gels in its embryonic or E form. During development, the molecule undergoes conversion to

Evidence that an RGD-dependent receptor mediates the binding of oligodendrocytes to a novel ligand in a glial-derived matrix. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
A simple adhesion assay was used to measure the interaction between rat oligodendrocytes and various substrata, including a matrix secreted by glial cells. Oligodendrocytes bound to surfaces coated with fibronectin, vitronectin and a protein component of

Molecular mechanisms separating two axonal pathways during embryonic development of the avian optic tectum [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
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
