Intranasal passive immunization using WGA-modified oligomer antibodies greatly improves learning and memory in Alzheimer's 5XFAD mice

TL;DR: It is suggested that propofol dampened the neuroinflammatory effects of surgery and implies that anesthetic management might modulate the long term outcome after surgery in elderly patients with risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease.

Method for detecting soluble oligomeric amyloid beta

TL;DR: A method for detecting soluble oligomeric amyloid β in a subject using, e.g., PET is provided in this paper, where the PET is used to detect the presence of amyloids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diet‐induced Alzheimer's‐like syndrome in the rabbit

TL;DR: It is proposed that mechanisms underlying LOAD can be assessed by stressing risk factors for inducing AD and that dietary manipulations can be used to assess etiological differences in the pathologies and effectiveness of potential therapeutics against LOAD.

The therapeutic and diagnostic potential of amyloid β oligomers (AβOs) selective antibodies to treat Alzheimer’s disease

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of endogenous AβOs in instigating memory loss and salient AD neuropathology was further supported by a promising anti-AβO diagnostic probe capable of distinguishing the 5xFAD mouse model from wild type mice by PET and MRI.
