White matter dementia [PDF]

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Neurological Disorders, 2012
White matter dementia (WMD) is a syndrome introduced in 1988 to highlight the potential of cerebral white matter disorders to produce cognitive loss of sufficient severity to qualify as dementia. Neurologists have long understood that such a syndrome can

White Matter-Gray Matter Correlation Analysis Based on White Matter Functional Gradient

open access: yesBrain Sciences
Background: The spontaneous fluctuations in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) signals of the brain’s gray matter (GM) have been interpreted as representations of neural activity variations.

CD8+ T cells induce interferon-responsive oligodendrocytes and microglia in white matter aging

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2022
A hallmark of nervous system aging is a decline of white matter volume and function, but the underlying mechanisms leading to white matter pathology are unknown.

Common genetic variation influencing human white matter microstructure

open access: yesScience, 2021
Connecting the dots on white matter The white matter of the brain, which is composed of axonal tracts connecting different brain regions, plays key roles in both normal brain function and a variety of neurological disorders. Zhao et al. combined detailed

White matter changes underlie hypertension-related cognitive decline in older adults

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2023
Hypertension has been well recognized as a risk factor for cognitive impairment and dementia. Although the underlying mechanisms of hypertension-affected cognitive deterioration are not fully understood, white matter changes (WMCs) seem to play an ...

Regional vulnerability of brain white matter in vanishing white matter

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2023
Vanishing white matter (VWM) is a leukodystrophy that primarily manifests in young children. In this disease, the brain white matter is differentially affected in a predictable pattern with telencephalic brain areas being most severely affected, while ...

What's the Matter? White Matter? [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2000
Although many children acquire reading skills rapidly with some formal training, for others learning to read is among the most difficult challenges they face in the first few years at school. The reasons for these large individual differences in skill acquisition are still obscure, with the relative contribution of biological and environmental factors ...

Microglia exacerbate white matter injury via complement C3/C3aR pathway after hypoperfusion

open access: yesTheranostics, 2020
Microglial activation participates in white matter injury after cerebral hypoperfusion. However, the underlying mechanism is unclear. Here, we explore whether activated microglia aggravate white matter injury via complement C3-C3aR pathway after chronic ...

Metachromatic leukodystrophy and transplantation: remyelination, no cross‐correction

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
Objective In metachromatic leukodystrophy, a lysosomal storage disorder due to decreased arylsulfatase A activity, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation may stop brain demyelination and allow remyelination, thereby halting white matter degeneration ...
