Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) has been historically defined as a disease of striatal dopamine deficiency secondary to degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta, related to the presence of Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

Relationships of CSF biomarkers to cortical atrophy in early‐onset Alzheimer's disease
Abstract INTRODUCTION Although cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers reflect neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD), it remains unclear whether these biomarkers track neurodegeneration in early‐onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD). METHODS In 80 EOAD patients, we examined correlations between eight CSF biomarker levels and cortical thickness ...

Sortilin Regulates Progranulin Action in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Cells [PDF]
The growth factor progranulin is as an important regulator of transformation in several cellular systems. We have previously demonstrated that progranulin acts as an autocrine growth factor and stimulates motility, proliferation, and anchorage ...

Abstract INTRODUCTION The impact of different neuropathologies on deep brain structures remains to be understood. We examine subcortical and limbic volumetry in neurodegenerative diseases involving phosphorylated tau (p‐tau), α‐synuclein, and transactive response DNA binding protein 43 (TDP‐43).

Objective Immunohistochemically (IHC) measured transactive response DNA‐binding protein 43 (TDP‐43) inclusions are observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and are associated with medial temporal lobe atrophy. Accumulation of cryptic exons occurs in AD in response to TDP‐43 pathology.

Expression of the growth factor progranulin in endothelial cells influences growth and development of blood vessels: a novel mouse model. [PDF]
Progranulin is a secreted glycoprotein that regulates cell proliferation, migration and survival. It has roles in development, tumorigenesis, wound healing, neurodegeneration and inflammation.

Irreversible ECM proteolysis by remodeling enzymes shapes development, homeostasis, and disease. ECM‐degrading proteases display cell specificity and are governed by shared mechanisms, exhibiting functional redundancy in generating matrikines, growth factors, and cytokines.

The role of progranulin in the brain
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is a devastating, late-onset neurodegenerative disorder that causes profound behavioral abnormalities, language impairment, and alterations in personality in affected patients.

The Evolution of the Secreted Regulatory Protein Progranulin. [PDF]
Progranulin is a secreted growth factor that is active in tumorigenesis, wound repair, and inflammation. Haploinsufficiency of the human progranulin gene, GRN, causes frontotemporal dementia.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) involves widespread cortical pathology beyond the motor cortex. Human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived neural organoids model cortical tissue in vitro and provide a physiologically relevant platform to study disease mechanisms in ALS.
