Mitoepigenetics and Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]
Mitochondrial impairment and increased oxidative stress are common features in neurodegenerative disorders, leading researchers to speculate that epigenetic changes in the mitochondrial DNA (mitoepigenetics) could contribute to neurodegeneration.

Deletion of Abi3/Gngt2 influences age-progressive amyloid β and tau pathologies in distinctive ways
Background The S209F variant of Abelson Interactor Protein 3 (ABI3) increases risk for Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but little is known about its function in relation to AD pathogenesis.

The Alzheimer’s disease-associated peptide amyloid-beta (Aβ) has been associated with neuronal hyperactivity under anesthesia, but clinical trials of anticonvulsants or neural system suppressors have, so far, failed to improve symptoms in AD.

Lessons learned about [F-18]-AV-1451 off-target binding from an autopsy-confirmed Parkinson’s case
[F-18]-AV-1451 is a novel positron emission tomography (PET) tracer with high affinity to neurofibrillary tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). PET studies have shown increased tracer retention in patients clinically diagnosed with dementia of AD ...

Neuronal SNCA transcription during Lewy body formation
Misfolded α-synuclein (α-syn) is believed to contribute to neurodegeneration in Lewy body disease (LBD) based on considerable evidence including a gene-dosage effect observed in relation to point mutations and multiplication of SNCA in familial Parkinson’

Neurodegenerative diseases: challenges [PDF]
Diseases of the aging brain—including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s—affect the lives of millions and pose a growing threat to public health. These diseases occur as a result of neurodegenerative processes involving the progressive loss of structure or function of neurons, including death of neurons.

In the intermediate stages of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), surviving motor neurons (MNs) that show intrinsic resistance to TDP-43 proteinopathy can partially compensate for the loss of their more disease-susceptible counterparts.

Background: Although the age-specific incidence and mortality of stroke is higher among men, stroke has a greater clinical effect on women. However, the sex differences in stroke among elderly patients are unknown.
