Microglia Undergo Sex-Dimorphic Transcriptional and Metabolic Rewiring During Aging

The Role of Microglia in Neuroinflammation: Metabolic and Gender Differences in Aging Research Background Aging is a major risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and Parkinson’s Disease. Even healthy aging is accompanied by a decline in cognitive function. Previous research has indicated that microglia undergo s...

Co-registration of MALDI-MSI and histology demonstrates gangliosides co-localize with amyloid beta plaques in Alzheimer’s disease

Co-registration of MALDI-MSI and histology demonstrates gangliosides co-localize with amyloid beta plaques in Alzheimer’s disease

Co-localization of Gangliosides with Amyloid Beta Plaques in Alzheimer’s Disease Detected by MALDI-MSI and Histology Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by cognitive impairment and behavioral changes. Historically, AD research has focused on misfolded proteins, but with advancements in mass spectrometry...

Early and Selective Localization of Tau Filaments to Glutamatergic Subcellular Domains within the Human Anterodorsal Thalamus

Background The main purpose of this study is to investigate the distribution and diffusion patterns of tau protein in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease, with a particular focus on the vulnerability of calretinin-positive neurons in the anterodorsal thalamic nucleus of the human subcortical region and the accumulation of tau pathology protein ...

Brain vasculature accumulates tau and is spatially related to tau tangle pathology in Alzheimer's disease

Study of Tau Protein Accumulation in Brain Vasculature in Alzheimer’s Disease Background Introduction Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by neurodegeneration, with primary pathological features including amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). These tangles are composed of tau protein, and these pathological changes are closely relate...

The Influence of APOEε4 on the pTau Interactome in Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease

The Influence of APOEε4 on the pTau Interactome in Sporadic Alzheimer’s Disease Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by extracellular deposition and aggregation of β-amyloid protein (Aβ) forming various types of Aβ deposits and the intracellular accumulation and assembly of abnormally phosphorylated tau p...
