Small Extracellular Vesicles from Neural Cells: Physiological and Pathological Roles, and Potential in Neurodegenerative Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 21, 5 June 2026.
Neural cell–derived small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are emerging as pivotal mediators in neurodegenerative diseases, exerting both pathogenic and therapeutic functions. This review synthesizes current evidence on how sEVs from distinct neural cell types regulate neurodegeneration, neuroprotection, biomarker discovery, and targeted drug delivery ...

RNF213 Is an Interferon‐Stimulated Gene That Targets Influenza A Virus NP and Activates MDA5 to Restrict Infection

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 31, 4 June 2026.
RNF213 is characterized as a dual‐functional antiviral effector. It directly mediates the degradation of the influenza A virus nucleoprotein (NP) while simultaneously activating the MDA5‐mediated innate immune signaling pathway. This coordinated response establishes a powerful host defense system against viral infection. ABSTRACT Influenza A virus (IAV)

Emerging directions in tauopathy research

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The Tau Global Conference 2025, hosted by the Alzheimer's Association, CurePSP, and the Rainwater Charitable Foundation, convened international experts from academia, industry, government, and philanthropy to explore advances and challenges in tauopathy research. The meeting highlighted progress across tau biology, including emerging models of

Brain regional susceptibility to tauopathy in individuals at risk for chronic traumatic encephalopathy

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a tauopathy linked to repetitive head impacts. Factors influencing brain regional susceptibility to tau deposition and spreading remain unclear. METHODS We used three datasets: [18F]flortaucipir positron emission tomography (PET) in 157 former professional American football players and 53 ...

Mitochondrial NADK2‐dependent NADPH controls tau oligomer uptake in human neurons

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Reduced brain energy metabolism, mitochondria dysfunction, and extracellular tau oligomer buildup characterize Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how these phenomena cooperatively promote neurodegeneration is poorly understood. We now report that tau oligomers (TauOs) pathologically coordinate mitochondrial metabolism with increased ...
