Journal ArticleDOI

Neurons Derived from a Human Teratocarcinoma Cell Line Establish Molecular and Structural Polarity Following Transplantation into the Rodent Brain

TL;DR: It is concluded that transplanted NT2N cells represent a highly advantageous model system for studies of the developmental biology of neurons and their ability to establish molecular and structural polarity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pesticide Exposure Exacerbates α-Synucleinopathy in an A53T Transgenic Mouse Model

TL;DR: The notion that environmental factors causing nitrative damage are closely linked to mechanisms underlying the formation of α-synuclein pathologies and the onset of Parkinson's-like neurodegeneration is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma amyloid beta measurements - a desired but elusive Alzheimer's disease biomarker

TL;DR: It is concluded that further clinical research and assay development are needed before measures of plasma Aβ can be interpreted so they can be applied as trait, risk or state biomarkers for AD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain Microvascular Pericytes in Vascular Cognitive Impairment and Dementia.

TL;DR: How dysfunctional pericytes contribute to the pathogenesis of vascular cognitive impairment including cerebral ‘small vessel’ and ‘large vessel” diseases, as well as AD is focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aluminum modifies the properties of Alzheimer's disease PHF tau proteins in vivo and in vitro

TL;DR: In vivo interactions of PHF tau and aluminum chloride (AlCl3) with other plaque and tangle components are investigated and suggest that aluminum binds to PHf tau, induces these proteins to aggregate, and retards their proteolysis.
