Chronic alcohol abuse is implicated in the oxidative stress and the changes in the neurotrophic factor receptor expression in the human CNS [PDF]
Alcohol abuse and alcoholism induce brain damage, and, in some cases, neurodegeneration. The pathogenesis of the alcohol-induced injury of the CNS is a complex process in which oxidative stress plays an essential role.

Proteomic Insight Into Alzheimer's Disease Pathogenesis Pathways
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a leading cause of dementia, but the pathogenesis mechanism is still elusive. Advances in proteomics have uncovered key molecular mechanisms underlying AD, revealing a complex network of dysregulated pathways, including amyloid metabolism, tau pathology, apolipoprotein E (APOE), protein degradation ...

The Absolute Number of Oligodendrocytes in the Adult Mouse Brain
The central nervous system is a highly complex network composed of various cell types, each one with different subpopulations. Each cell type has distinct roles for the functional operation of circuits, and ultimately, for brain physiology in general ...

Unprecedented Combination of Rare Degenerative Pathologies in an Octogenarian Ex‐Football Player
ABSTRACT A 79‐year‐old former professional football player presented with language deficits and cognitive changes. A year later, he had difficulty completing sentences, and 3 years after onset, was reduced to one‐word answers. He developed severe apathy and agitation, and became more impulsive.

Borna disease virus infection perturbs energy metabolites and amino acids in cultured human oligodendroglia cells. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Borna disease virus is a neurotropic, non-cytolytic virus that has been widely employed in neuroscientific research. Previous studies have revealed that metabolic perturbations are associated with Borna disease viral infection.

Main Points Ablation of autophagy in oligodendrocytes reveals increased PLP expression, myelin abnormalities, axon degeneration and increased microglia activation in aged mice. The aged mice exhibit marked deficits in learning and memory tasks. ABSTRACT The aging central nervous system (CNS) is often marked by myelin degeneration, yet the underlying ...

Differences in the soluble and insoluble proteome between primary tauopathies
Abstract INTRODUCTION Primary tauopathies, including corticobasal degeneration (CBD), Pick's disease (PiD), and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), have aggregated tau pathology in the brain. Many other proteins are likely altered in disease; however, these have not been well characterized.
