Cerebral ischemia and CNS transplantation: differential effects of grafted fetal rat striatal cells and human neurons derived from a clonal cell line.

TL;DR: It is reported here that ischemia-induced behavioral dysfunctions were ameliorated by the neural grafts as early as 1 month post-transplantation, and the logistical and ethical concerns about the use of fetal striatal cells for transplantation therapy can be eliminated by exploiting cell line-derived human neurons as alternative graft sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

TDP-43 skeins show properties of amyloid in a subset of ALS cases.

TL;DR: The demonstration that pathological TDP-43 can be amyloidogenic in situ suggests the following conclusions: (1) the conformational changes associated with T DP-43 aggregation are more complex than previously thought; (2) Thioflavin-S positive SLI may be composed primarily of filamentous ultrastructures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transmission of tauopathy strains is independent of their isoform composition

TL;DR: A new transgenic mouse line is generated expressing 6 human tau isoforms with equal 3R and 4R ratios, recapitulate distinct human t Tau strains in mouse brains with similar isoform compositions and cell type specificities, and further show the strain transmission pattern is independent of its isoform composition.
