Perspectives from Alzheimer's Disease Research Centers site directors on the early steps and the lasting impact

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Since the groundbreaking work of Alois Alzheimer in the early 1900s, Alzheimer's disease research has evolved immensely, most notably with the establishment of the Alzheimer's Disease Research Centers (ADRC). Fueled by the vision and funding of the National Institute on Aging (NIA), ADRCs have created a legacy through their work standardizing ...

siRNA blocking of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) attenuates pathology in annonacin-induced tauopathy in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tauopathy is a pathological hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases. It is characterized by abnormal aggregates of pathological phosphotau and somatodendritic redistribution.

Tau‐PET correlates of mild behavioral impairment in preclinical and prodromal Alzheimer's disease: A head‐to‐head comparison of Flortaucipir and MK6240

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION We compared the association between mild behavioral impairment (MBI) and first‐ versus second‐generation tau‐positron emission tomography (PET) tracers in preclinical and prodromal Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS We assessed 110 individuals with head‐to‐head [18F]MK6240 and [18F]Flortaucipir tau‐PET.

Distribution of Big Tau Isoforms in the Human Central and Peripheral Nervous System

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 100, Issue 4, Page 709-736, October 2026.
Objective Tau is widely studied in neurodegeneration, yet most work has focused on canonical brain tau isoforms. A longer isoform, “big tau,” produced by inclusion of exon 4a, is expressed in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) regions.

Discovery and characterization of stereodefined PMO-gapmers targeting tau

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids
Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) are an important class of therapeutics to treat genetic diseases, and expansion of this modality to neurodegenerative disorders has been an active area of research.

Targeting Microglial Transcriptional Reprogramming as a Therapy Strategy for Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 10, October 2026.
Recent human genetic studies highlight the critical role of microglial pathways in Alzheimer's disease, with risk loci enriched in microglia‐specific genes such as SPI1 and MEF2C. Dysregulation of these transcription factors contributes to disease pathogenesis.

Quantifying the Diamagnetic and Paramagnetic Components of Beta‐Amyloid Plaques Using Decomposed Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping in Mouse Models of Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 10, October 2026.
Ex vivo MRI was performed on AD mouse models using high‐resolution multi‐echo gradient‐echo imaging on a 9.4T scanner to generate quantitative susceptibility maps (QSM) and separate diamagnetic and paramagnetic components. Amyloid‐β$$ \beta $$ plaques were detected from the susceptibility maps.

cis p-tau: early driver of brain injury and tauopathy blocked by antibody

open access: yes, 2016
Traumatic brain injury (TBI), characterized by acute neurological dysfunction, is one of the best known environmental risk factors for chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), whose defining pathologic features include ...

Function within disorder: Small heat shock proteins use different functional regions to chaperone tau aggregation

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract In numerous neurodegenerative diseases known collectively as tauopathies, the microtubule‐associated protein tau forms fibrillar aggregates that are hallmarks of disease pathology. Tauopathies represent a substantial fraction of diseases associated with protein misfolding.
