Diffusion MRI biomarkers of white matter microstructure vary nonmonotonically with increasing cerebral amyloid deposition

Ileana Ozana Jelescu

Beta amyloid (A beta) accumulation is the earliest pathological marker of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but early AD pathology also affects white matter (WM) integrity. We performed a cross-sectional study including 44 subjects (23 healthy controls and 21 mild ...

Anti-Aβ antibodies bound to neuritic plaques enhance microglia activity and mitigate tau pathology

Bernard Schneider, Philippe Colin, Vanessa Laversenne

The brain pathology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by the misfolding and aggregation of both the amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide and hyperphosphorylated forms of the tau protein. Initial Aβ deposition is considered to trigger a sequence of deleteri ...

In vitro Implementation of Photopolymerizable Hydrogels as a Potential Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms

Dominique Pioletti, Christophe Moser, Andreas Schmocker, Oriane Poupart

Intracranial aneurysms are increasingly being treated with endovascular therapy, namely coil embolization. Despite being minimally invasive, partial occlusion and recurrence are more frequent compared to open surgical clipping. Therefore, an alternative tr ...

The metalloprotease ADAMTS4 generates N-truncated A4-x species and marks oligodendrocytes as a source of amyloidogenic peptides in Alzheimer's disease

Patrick Fraering, Mitko Dimitrov, Hermeto Gerber, Sandra Lehmann

Brain accumulation and aggregation of amyloid- (A) peptides is a critical step in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Full-length A peptides (mainly A1-40 and A1-42) are produced through sequential proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor pr ...

Membrane–Protein–Hydration Interaction of α-Synuclein with Anionic Vesicles Probed via Angle-Resolved Second-Harmonic Scattering

Sylvie Roke, Jan Dedic, Halil Ibrahim Okur

Amyloid formation of the protein α-synuclein promotes neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease. The normal function of α-synuclein includes synaptic vesicle transport and fusion, and the protein binds strongly to negatively charged vesicles in vitro. Here, ...

Application of anti-amyloid beta immunization using encapsulated cell technology in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease

Vanessa Laversenne

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly. AD is characterized by the deposition of two aggregated proteins: Amyloid beta (Aß) and hyperphosphorylated tau. Accumulations of these proteins are thought to be the signature ...

Histidine Targeting Heterobimetallic Ruthenium(II)-Gold(I) Complexes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Daniel Ortiz Trujillo, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Inspired by the preferential, allosteric binding of RAPTA-T and auranofin to the nucleosome core particle, we describe the design and synthesis of a series of heterobimetallic ruthenium(II)-gold(I) complexes with varying spacer lengths ranging from four to ...

GABA and glutamate moderate beta-amyloid related functional connectivity in cognitively unimpaired old-aged adults

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti

Background: Effects of beta-amyloid accumulation on neuronal function precede the clinical manifestation of Alzheimer's disease (AD) by years and affect distinct cognitive brain networks. As previous studies suggest a link between beta-amyloid and dysregul ...

Crosslinking Allosteric Sites on the Nucleosome Core Particle

Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Designing compounds that bind to the acidic patch of the nucleosome core particle (NCP) is an emerging therapeutic approach that can inhibit the binding of key chromatin factors. Pretreatment of human ovarian carcinoma, A2780, cells with RAPTA-T, an antime ...

A viral vector based in vivo model of tauopathy to explore therapeutic strategies against tau pathology

Sameer Mohammad Khaleel Nazeeruddin

Tauopathies are neurodegenerative diseases whose common pathological feature is the intraneuronal accumulation of tau aggregates. Tau protein has various roles in the neuron, among which stabilization of microtubules (MT), regulation of synaptic activity o ...
