Neurochemical Endpoints to Inform Early‐Stage Trials of Spinocerebellar Ataxia 2 and 3 in a Multisite Setting

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neurochemical levels measured by brain MR spectroscopy (MRS) have been proposed as endpoints for clinical trials in early‐stage spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) trials. We tested their trial‐readiness by quantifying neurochemicals in three affected brain regions in early‐stage cohorts of SCA2 and SCA3, examining their reproducibility in ...

The Role of Tau in Neurodegenerative Diseases and Its Potential as a Therapeutic Target

Scientifica, 2012
The abnormal deposition of proteins in and around neurons is a common pathological feature of many neurodegenerative diseases. Among these pathological proteins, the microtubule-associated protein tau forms intraneuronal filaments in a spectrum of ...

Association of CSF proteins with tau and amyloid β levels in asymptomatic 70-year-olds

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Increased knowledge of the evolution of molecular changes in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is important for the understanding of disease pathophysiology and also crucial to be able to identify and validate ...

Cognitive and Neuroimaging Divergence Between Juvenile and Adult FUS Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive motor neuron degeneration. Fused in sarcoma (FUS)‐associated juvenile ALS (jALS) represents a distinct and aggressive subgroup with rapid deterioration and poor prognosis.

Cerebrospinal fluid proteome profiling across the Alzheimer’s disease continuum: a step towards solving the equation for ‘X’

Molecular Neurodegeneration
Background While the temporal profile of amyloid (Aβ) and tau cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers along the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continuum is well-studied, chronological changes of CSF proteins reflecting other disease-relevant processes, denoted ‘X’

Rivastigmine interferes with the pharmacological activity of hydromethylthionine on presynaptic proteins in the line 66 model of frontotemporal dementia

Brain Research Bulletin
The negative interference of treatments between the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor rivastigmine and the tau aggregation inhibitor hydromethylthionine mesylate (HMTM) has been reported in Line 1 tau-transgenic mice, which overexpress a truncated species ...

Integrated analysis of the aging brain transcriptome and proteome in tauopathy

Molecular Neurodegeneration, 2020
Background Tau neurofibrillary tangle pathology characterizes Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative tauopathies. Brain gene expression profiles can reveal mechanisms; however, few studies have systematically examined both the transcriptome and ...

Analysis of the structure and function of protein phosphatase 2A [PDF]

, 2004
One of the hallmarks of a living organism is the ability to respond to intra- or extracellular changes. These responses involve panoply of enzymes mediating signals through the cell and regulating distinct cellular functions.
