Correlation of Alzheimer Disease Neuropathologic Changes With Cognitive Status: A Review of the Literature

TL;DR: Evidence from many independent research centers strongly supports the existence of a specific disease, as defined by the presence of A&bgr; plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Editorial on Consensus Recommendations for the Postmortem Diagnosis of Alzheimer Disease from the National Institute on Aging and the Reagan Institute Working Group on Diagnostic Criteria for the Neuropathological Assessment of Alzheimer Disease

TL;DR: The consensus recommendations for improving the neuropathological criteria for the postmortem diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease are reported here, and the "position papers" by members of the Working Group that accompany this report elaborate on the research findings and concepts upon which these recommendations were based.

Synapse Loss and Microglial Activation Precede Tangles in a P301S Tauopathy Mouse Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied wild-type and P301S mutant human tau transgenic (Tg) mice and found that tangle formation was preceded by microglial activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative Damage Linked to Neurodegeneration by Selective α-Synuclein Nitration in Synucleinopathy Lesions

TL;DR: The selective and specific nitration of alpha-synuclein in these disorders provides evidence to directly link oxidative and nitrative damage to the onset and progression of neurodegenerative synucleinopathies.
