Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular dissection of TrkA signal transduction pathways mediating differentiation in human neuroblastoma cells

TL;DR: Analysis of downstream signal transduction pathways indicated that NGF-induced differentiation was dependent on TrkA kinase activity, and activation of the RAS/MAPK signaling pathway seems to be of major importance for NGF mediated differentiation of NB cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomarkers for early detection of Alzheimer pathology.

TL;DR: Success will facilitate the ability to reliably diagnose Alzheimer’s disease while the symptoms of brain failure are mild and may provide objective measures of disease-modifying treatment efficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tau-directed drug discovery for Alzheimer's disease and related tauopathies: a focus on tau assembly inhibitors.

TL;DR: Recent advances in tau-based drug discovery are reviewed, with an emphasis on the identification of compounds that inhibit the assembly of tau into multimers and fibrils.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetically modified NT2N human neuronal cells mediate long-term gene expression as CNS grafts in vivo and improve functional cognitive outcome following experimental traumatic brain injury

TL;DR: Stable, efficient, and nontoxic gene transfer into undifferentiated NT2 cells using a pseudotyped lentiviral vector encoding the human elongation factor 1-α promoter and the reporter gene eGFP is demonstrated.
