Patterns of Mitochondrial TSPO Binding in Cerebral Small Vessel Disease: An in vivo PET Study With Neuropathological Comparison
(Frontiers Media, 2020-10-16)Small vessel disease (SVD) is associated with cognitive impairment in older age and be implicated in vascular dementia. Post-mortem studies show proliferation of activated microglia in the affected white matter. However, ... -
Mild cognitive impairment: the Manchester consensus
(Silverchair, 2021-01-08)Given considerable variation in diagnostic and therapeutic practice, there is a need for national guidance on the use of neuroimaging, fluid biomarkers, cognitive testing, follow-up and diagnostic terminology in mild ... -
Is disrupted sleep a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease? Evidence from a two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis
(Silverchair, 2020-11-05)Background: It is established that Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients experience sleep disruption. However, it remains unknown whether disruption in the quantity, quality or timing of sleep is a risk factor for the onset ... -
Increased isoform-specific phosphodiesterase 4D expression is associated with pathology and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease
(Elsevier Science, 2021-01)Pharmacological phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) inhibition shows therapeutic potential to restore memory function in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but will likely evoke adverse side effects. As PDE4D encodes multiple isoforms, ... -
Next-Generation RNA-Sequencing of Serum Small Extracellular Vesicles Discovers Potential Diagnostic Biomarkers for Dementia With Lewy Bodies
(Elsevier Science, 2021-06)Objective: There is an urgent clinical need for identifying blood-based diagnostic biomarkers for Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). Transcriptomic studies have reported unique RNA changes in postmortem DLB brains. Small ... -
YIPF5 mutations cause neonatal diabetes and microcephaly through endoplasmic reticulum stress
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 2020-12-01)Neonatal diabetes is caused by single gene mutations reducing pancreatic β cell number or impairing β cell function. Understanding the genetic basis of rare diabetes subtypes highlights fundamental biological processes in ... -
Paired rRNA-depleted and polyA-selected RNA sequencing data and supporting multi-omics data from human T cells
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020-11-09)Both poly(A) enrichment and ribosomal RNA depletion are commonly used for RNA sequencing. Either has its advantages and disadvantages that may lead to biases in the downstream analyses. To better access these effects, we ... -
Isoform-specific upregulation of FynT kinase expression is associated with tauopathy and glial activation in Alzheimer's disease and Lewy body dementias
(Wiley, 2021-03)Cumulative data suggest the involvement of Fyn tyrosine kinase in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Previously, our group has shown increased immunoreactivities of the FynT isoform in AD neocortex (with no change in the alternatively ... -
