11. Polymorphic protein aggregation in tauopathies
Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease(s) comprises one of the most common and costly neurodegenerative diseases. With a larger population and an increasing life expectancy, amyloid diseases (with age as one of the most prominent risk factors) will generate an even larger burden on healthcare. LÄS MER
12. A stargazer's guide to neurodegeneration : Astrocytes' role in the propagation of pathological proteins
Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) are characterized by brain accumulation of pathogenic protein aggregates. In the AD brain, amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau form plaques respective tangles, while in the PD brain α-synuclein (α-syn) form Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. LÄS MER
13. Therapeutic and functional studies in animal models of Alzheimer's disease
Sammanfattning : Senile plaques (Aβ) and neurofibrillary tangles (tau) are pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). If and how the formation of these deposits are mechanistically linked remains mainly unknown. In recent years, the focus has shifted from insoluble protein deposits to soluble aggregates of Aβ and tau. LÄS MER
14. Ex‘PLA’ining the progression of pathological proteins in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases : see(d)ing is believing
Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) are the two most common forms of neurodegenerative disorders affecting approximately 50 million people worldwide. The underlying neuropathological processes leading to AD and PD share many similarities, i.e. aberrant protein aggregation of tau and alpha-synuclein (αSyn) in the brain. LÄS MER
15. Prediction value of genetic and neuromarkers in blood and liquor in patients with severe traumatic brain injury
Sammanfattning : Background: Severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) is the most common cause of mortality in young adults. sTBI induces variable brain damage, invisible in Computer Tomographic scans early post-trauma. Further, neurology is difficult to evaluate in sedated patients. LÄS MER
