Prolyl Isomerase Pin1 Directly Regulates Calcium/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II Activity in Mouse Brains

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is abundant in the brain and functions as a mediator of calcium signaling. We found that the relative activity of CaMKII was significantly lower in the WT mouse brains than in the Pin1-/- mouse ...

Lifelong behavioral and neuropathological consequences of repetitive mild traumatic brain injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Exposure to repetitive concussion, or mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), has been linked with increased risk of long-term neurodegenerative changes, specifically chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).

Frontotemporal dementia: Clinical aspects, genetics, and neuropathology of a family with a C9ORF72 expansion in Argentina

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Immunohistochemistry for TDP‐43: (A)—Dentate gyrus; (B)—Temporal lobe. Abstract Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the second most common cause of early‐onset dementia, typically manifesting before the age of 65, with a mean onset at 58 years. FTD may encompass a spectrum of neurodegenerative disorders resulting from frontotemporal lobar degeneration ...

Globular Glial Tauopathy Type I Presenting as Atypical Progressive Aphasia, With Comorbid Limbic-Predominant Age-Related TDP-43 Encephalopathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2019
Globular glial tauopathies (GGTs) have heterogeneous presentations with little available information regarding typical clinical manifestations. We report on a case of atypical primary progressive aphasia (PPA) due to comorbid GGT and limbic transactive ...

Modeling Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy: The Way Forward for Future Discovery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Despite the extensive media coverage associated with the diagnosis of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), our fundamental understanding of the disease pathophysiology remains in its infancy.

Heritability in frontotemporal tauopathies

open access: yesAlzheimer's & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring, 2019
AbstractIntroductionExploring the degree of heritability in a large cohort of frontotemporal lobar degeneration with tau‐immunopositive inclusions (FTLD‐tau) and determining if different FTLD‐tau subtypes are associated with stronger heritability will provide important insight into disease pathogenesis.MethodsUsing modified Goldman pedigree ...

Rapid generation of prion disease models using AAV‐delivered PrP variants in knockout mice

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
We developed a rapid AAV‐based system to generate prion disease models in weeks rather than months. Following systemic AAV9P31 delivery of modified PrP to knockout mice, we achieved brain‐wide expression and successful propagation of both classical (RML) and atypical (GSS‐A117V) prion strains.

Presymptomatic change in microRNAs modulates Tau pathology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
MicroRNAs (miRs) are 18~23 nucleotides long non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression. To explore whether miR alterations in tauopathy contribute to pathological conditions, we first determined which hippocampal miRs are altered at the presymptomatic

Increased expression of inflammasome signaling genes and proteins in selective brain regions in the intermediate stage of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Neuritic plaques increase in the intermediate stage of Alzheimer's neuropathological change. The intermediate stage of Alzheimer's disease was investigated by transcriptomics and immunohistochemistry. This revealed that inflammasome sensors NLRP1, NLRP3, and AIM2 oligomerize with ASC speck to form the inflammasome complex and initiate the downstream ...
