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...

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 ...

Research Background In the field of neuroscience, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) are two highly heterogeneous neurodegenerative diseases. Studies indicate that non-coding hexanucleotide repeat expansions in the c9orf72 gene are the most common genetic causes of these diseases. However, the specific ...

Detection of Seeding Activity of Human Superoxide Dismutase 1 Aggregates in Postmortem Neural Tissues of Familial and Sporadic Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Patients Background Introduction Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressing neurodegenerative disease with an average survival time of 2 to 5 years after diagnosis. Major symp...

Research Background Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a chronic antibody-mediated autoimmune disease that primarily affects synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction. Approximately 85% of MG patients are antibody-mediated targeting acetylcholine receptors (AChR). The clinical features of this disease include muscle weakness, especially fatigue-in...
