Journal ArticleDOI

Deficiency of a sulfotransferase for sialic acid-modified glycans mitigates Alzheimer's pathology.

TL;DR: Keratan sulfate modified with sialic acids having a molecular mass of 125–220 kDa and the carbohydrate sulfotransferase GlcNAc6ST1 were up-regulated in the brains of two transgenic mouse models and the heads of patients with AD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deficiency of terminal complement pathway inhibitor promotes neuronal tau pathology and degeneration in mice.

TL;DR: The authors' data in two independent mouse models with genetic changes in key regulators of the complement system support the hypothesis that the terminal pathway has an active role in the development of tau pathology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microglial keratan sulfate epitope elicits in central nervous tissues of transgenic model mice and patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

TL;DR: Results indicate that both galactose-6- and N acteylglucosamine- 6-sulfated KS elicited in the spinal cord and brainstem are associated with the degeneration of spinal and bulbar lower motor neurons in ALS pathology and may play a role in disease progression via microglial activation and proliferation.
