Differences in the Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy Proteome in Alzheimer's Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment

Differences in the Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy Proteome in Alzheimer's Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a disease caused by the deposition of amyloid-beta (Aβ) in cerebral blood vessels. It is common not only in the elderly and almost all patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) but can also occur independently of other AD-related pathologies. The presence and severity of CAA promote the progression of AD-related cl...

Single-Nucleus Sequencing Reveals Enriched Expression of Genetic Risk Factors in ALS-Sensitive Neurons

Publication of a New Study on ALS Neurodegeneration in 《Nature Aging》 Throughout human history, numerous mysterious diseases have posed significant challenges for scientific research. Among these, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a progressive neurodegenerative disease, is known for the gradual loss of muscle function and disability it causes. ...

Restoration of Neuronal Progenitors by Partial Reprogramming in the Aged Neurogenic Niche

Scientific Research Report Background Introduction For a long time, aging has been considered an irreversible process. However, recent research suggests that aging is a biological process that can be regulated. Various interventions have been shown to delay or even reverse certain characteristics of aging. Partial reprogramming is a method that rev...

Adherence to the Planetary Health Diet and Cognitive Decline: Findings from the ELSA-Brasil Study

In the global context, the Planetary Health Diet has been proposed as a way to improve human health while protecting the Earth. However, studies on the relationship between the Planetary Health Diet and cognitive decline are very limited. To fill this research gap, researchers Natalia Gomes Gonçalves, Leandro Teixeira Cacau, Naomi Vidal Ferreira, P...
