Diagnostic Utility of the ATG9A Ratio in AP‐4–Associated Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 4, Page 834-839, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Adaptor protein complex 4–associated hereditary spastic paraplegia (AP‐4‐HSP), a childhood‐onset neurogenetic disorder and frequent mimic of cerebral palsy, is caused by biallelic variants in the adaptor protein complex 4 (AP‐4) subunit genes (AP4B1 [for SPG47], AP4M1 [for SPG50], AP4E1 [for SPG51], and AP4S1 [for SPG52]).

Glial pathology networks reveal early olfactory vulnerability in post mortem human Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION The olfactory system is an early target in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet regional glial pathology interactions remain poorly defined. We examined how glial activation and pathological burden differ between the olfactory cortex (OC) and olfactory bulb (OB) across disease stages.

Olfactory decline tracks central‐to‐peripheral spread of tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Olfactory decline often precedes cognitive symptoms in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and is linked to tau pathology. Yet, whether tau aggregates start in peripheral olfactory structures or spread from central regions remains debated. METHODS We analyzed 34 post mortem human olfactory bulb (OB) and 2 neuroepithelium (ONE) samples across
