Endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response transcriptional targets of XBP-1s mediate rescue from tauopathy

Communications Biology
Pathological tau disrupts protein homeostasis (proteostasis) within neurons in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and related disorders. We previously showed constitutive activation of the endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response (UPRER) transcription ...

PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade harnesses monocyte-derived macrophages to combat cognitive impairment in a tauopathy mouse model

Nature Communications, 2019
Blocking the PD-1 pathway was shown to be effective in amyloid beta mouse models, yet little is known about its therapeutic potential in models of tauopathy.

Research progress on biomarkers of traumatic brain injury

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Traumatic brain injury: From primary insult to secondary neuroinflammation and degeneration. Abstract Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common disorder of the nervous system and has become a leading cause of death and disability worldwide, imposing a substantial burden on patients and their social circles. Its main symptoms include dyskinesia, language

Emerging roles for innate and adaptive immunity in tauopathies

Cell Reports
Summary: Tauopathies encompass a large majority of dementia diagnoses and are characterized by toxic neuronal or glial inclusions of the microtubule-associated protein tau. Tau has a high propensity to induce prion-like spreading throughout the brain via

Novel Monoclonal Antibody Detects Small Aβ Oligomers More Sensitively Than Lecanemab in Alzheimer's Disease CSF, Serum and Culture Media

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Aqueously diffusible oligomers of the amyloid β‐protein (oAβ) are neurotoxic and play a role in neuronal dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Accurate quantification of oAβ in brains and biofluids could be valuable for understanding and monitoring AD.

Mutations causing neurodegenerative tauopathies

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2005
Tau is the major component of the intracellular filamentous deposits that define a number of neurodegenerative diseases. They include the largely sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD), progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, Pick's disease and argyrophilic grain disease, as well as the inherited frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism ...

Cognition in menopausal women

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Cognitive health in postmenopausal women is significantly affected by hormonal shifts, especially the drop in estrogen levels. This review explores the intricate relationship between menopause and cognitive functions across six domains: perception, attention, memory, language, executive functioning, and motor skills.

A small molecule ApoE4-targeted therapeutic candidate that normalizes sirtuin 1 levels and improves cognition in an Alzheimer's disease mouse model. [PDF]

, 2018
We describe here the results from the testing of a small molecule first-in-class apolipoprotein E4 (ApoE4)-targeted sirtuin1 (SirT1) enhancer, A03, that increases the levels of the neuroprotective enzyme SirT1 while not affecting levels of neurotoxic ...

Voice and Speech in Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Background Motor speech disorders are early, common, and functionally limiting features of atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These impairments are underrecognized and undertreated in neurology clinics.

Zebrafish models of Tauopathy

Biochimica 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 ...
