Heterogenous Neuropathology in a Pedigree with RAB39B‐Related Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In 2015, we reported a family with Parkinson's disease resulting from the RAB39B p.G192R (c.574G>A) variant. Since then, two affected brothers from the family have undergone autopsy. Objectives To characterize neuropathological findings, assess intracellular distribution of RAB39B protein, and examine the effect of p.G192R on α ...

Tau seeding activity in skin biopsy differentiates tauopathies from synucleinopathies

open access: yesnpj Parkinson's Disease
Most neurodegenerative diseases lack definitive diagnostic tests, and the identification of easily accessible and reliable biomarkers remains a critical unmet need.

Zebrafish models of Tauopathy

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2011
Tauopathies are a group of incurable neurodegenerative diseases, in which loss of neurons is accompanied by intracellular deposition of fibrillar material composed of hyperphosphorylated forms of the microtubule-associated protein Tau. A zebrafish model of Tauopathy could complement existing murine models by providing a platform for genetic and ...

SPG4 Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia: From Etiology to Therapy

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) comprise a heterogeneous group of heritable neurodegenerative disorders resulting from mutations in a wide variety of genes. HSP locomotor symptoms include lower limb weakness and spasticity that arise from progressive degeneration of corticospinal axons projecting from the motor cortex to the distal ...

Heparan sulfate and glycomimetics: Advances in synthesis and biological applications for post‐stroke neurorepair

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
ECM, extracellular matrix; BDNF, brain‐derived neuroptrophic factor; FGF, fibroblast growth factor; VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor. Abstract Heparan sulfate, a structurally diverse glycosaminoglycan that is abundant in the central nervous system (CNS), orchestrates essential processes fundamental to neural plasticity, neurorepair, and ...

Ferritin nanocage-enabled detection of pathological tau in living human retinal cells

open access: yesScientific Reports
Tauopathies, including Alzheimer’s disease and Frontotemporal Dementia, are debilitating neurodegenerative disorders marked by cognitive decline. Despite extensive research, achieving effective treatments and significant symptom management remains ...

Distinct Microglial Responses in Two Transgenic Murine Models of TAU Pathology

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Microglial cells are crucial players in the pathological process of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Microglial response in AD has been principally studied in relation to amyloid-beta pathology but, comparatively, little is ...

Data‐driven thresholds for standardized classification of severe Alzheimer's disease neuropathology using digital neuropathology

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
We generated digital pathologic algorithms (AI‐based modules that can be freely shared) to: optimize the sampling (ROI) for diagnosis of ADNC‐related tau pathology; compare/transition between Aperio and HALO platforms; and rationalize severe Braak NFT staging, so that all Braak‐VI cases had dementia, and all Braak‐V cases had MCI or dementia.

Secretion of full-length Tau or Tau fragments in cell culture models. Propagation of Tau in vivo and in vitro

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2018
The microtubule-associated protein Tau plays a crucial role in stabilizing neuronal microtubules. In Tauopathies, Tau loses its ability to bind microtubules, detach from them and forms intracellular aggregates.

Distinctly altered TRPC3 and TRPC6 expression patterns in human Alzheimer's disease cortex and hippocampus

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Divergent remodeling of TRPC channels occurs in Alzheimer's disease, with TRPC3 increased in neurons and reactive astrocytes and TRPC6 reduced in pyramidal neurons. These alterations may contribute to calcium dysregulation, neuroinflammation, and synaptic dysfunction during AD progression.
