Transcriptional regulation of human NMNAT2: insights from 3D genome sequencing and bioinformatics
NMNAT2 is a valuable drug target, as low levels increase the risk of neurodegeneration. We employed 4C‐seq to identify NMNAT2 regulatory regions in the human genome, revealing distinct interactomes of the NMNAT2 promoter in undifferentiated and neuron‐like SH‐SY5Y cells. Additionally, we uncovered NMNAT2‐associated genes and transcription factors. This

Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms are revolutionising the world, and they have the potential to revolutionise neuropsychology as well. A particularly fruitful field for this revolution is the cognitive assessment of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Mild Cognitive ...

The Effect of Deep Brain Stimulation on Sleep and Cognition in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
ABSTRACT Sleep–wake disturbances and cognitive decline are among the most common nonmotor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Deep brain stimulation (DBS) can successfully alleviate motor symptoms. However, the impact on sleep–wake disturbances and cognitive decline, and their interaction, is yet unclear.

Iron is crucial for brain functioning, but excessive levels can harm brain health. While previous studies support this, meta‐analytic evidence in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is limited. We performed a meta‐analysis of 23 MRI studies with 715 AD patients and 1130 healthy controls.
