In Vivo Assessment of Neuroinflammation in 4-Repeat Tauopathies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND Neuroinflammation has received growing interest as a therapeutic target in neurodegenerative disorders, including 4-repeat tauopathies. OBJECTIVES The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate 18 kDa translocator protein ...

Predictive Ability of Plasma p‐tau217 for β‐Amyloid Status: A Prospective Multicenter Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma tau phosphorylated at threonine 217 (p‐tau217) measured with fully automated platforms has shown high accuracy for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, but real‐world multicenter data remain limited. We aimed to validate the diagnostic performance of p‐tau217 for identifying AD pathology in a real‐world multicenter cohort ...

Human Tau Isoforms and Proteolysis for Production of Toxic Tau Fragments in Neurodegeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
The human tau protein is implicated in a wide range of neurodegenerative “tauopathy” diseases, consisting of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration which includes progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, Pick’s ...

Digital Cognitive Phenotyping for Differential Diagnosis and Monitoring in Neurological Conditions

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To assess the utility, accessibility, and equivalence to supervised scales of online cognitive assessment in older individuals with cognitive impairment. Methods Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD, n = 31), idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH, n = 26), and traumatic brain injury (TBI, n = 23) completed online cognitive ...

Modifications of Lysine Residues 294 and 311 Within the Microtubule‐Binding Region Alter Tau Aggregation and Tubulin Binding Equilibria

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The molecular consequences of specific lysine modifications in Alzheimer´s disease remain insufficiently resolved in the context of full‐length protein. Here we integrate protein semisynthesis, segmental isotope labelling, and high‐resolution NMR spectroscopy to achieve residue‐resolved interrogation of site‐specific acetylation and carboxymethylation.

Characterizing Cutaneous α‐Synuclein Deposition and Seeding Activity in Parkinson's Disease Subtypes

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cutaneous phosphorylated α‐synuclein (p‐syn) and α‐synuclein seeding activity are promising biomarkers for Parkinson's disease (PD), but their clinical value remains uncertain due to disease heterogeneity. This study evaluates these two biomarkers in PD patients to inform phenotype‐specific diagnosis and disease severity assessment ...

Environmental tauopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Neurodegenerative diseases, of which tauopathies form a major class, are increasing in prevalence worldwide. Tauopathies are characterized by the presence of abnormal neuronal and glial inclusions that are composed predominantly of the microtubule ...

Stratification of brain-derived extracellular vesicles of Alzheimer’s disease patients indicates a unique proteomic content and a higher seeding capacity of small extracellular vesicles

open access: yesTranslational Neurodegeneration
Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prominent form of dementia worldwide. It is characterized by tau lesions that spread throughout the brain in a spatio-temporal manner.

The Sulfation Code of Tauopathies: Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in the Prion Like Spread of Tau Pathology

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Tauopathies are a heterogenous family of progressive neurodegenerative diseases defined by the appearance of proteinaceous lesions within the brain composed of abnormally folded species of Microtubule Associated Protein Tau (tau). Alzheimer’s Disease (AD)

Early Retinal UCHL1 Dysregulation Coupled With Synaptic Loss Reflects Alzheimer's Disease Severity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies synapse‐enriched deubiquitinase UCHL1 as an early Aβ‐responsive regulator of retinal synaptopathy in Alzheimer's disease. Retinal UCHL1 loss accompanies excitatory synapse degeneration, p75NTR activation, and neuroinflammation, and predicts Braak stage and cognitive decline. Aβ42 fibrils trigger synaptic and UCHL1 depletion before
