TLDR
By better understanding AD inflammatory and immunoregulatory processes, it should be possible to develop anti-inflammatory approaches that may not cure AD but will likely help slow the progression or delay the onset of this devastating disorder.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing the role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in periodontitis to determine a causative relationship with Alzheimer's disease.
TL;DR: An argument is put forward based on the current literature for in vivo infection-mediated periodontal disease models supporting the antimicrobial protection hypothesis of AD and interventional studies supporting the causal links.

Methods and reagents for treatment and diagnosis of age-related macular degeneration
TL;DR: In this paper, the Factor H gene polymorphisms and haplotypes associated with an elevated or a reduced risk of AMD were identified and used for diagnosis and treatment of AMD in patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disease-modifying therapies in Alzheimer's disease : How far have we come?
TL;DR: The metabolism of the amyloid-precursor protein and the aggregation of its Aβ fragment are the focus of current studies and inhibitors of Aβ aggregation have been described and clinical trials have been initiated.

TL;DR: The proteins with altered levels in the AD brain represent a wide variety of pathways suggested to be involved in the disease pathogenesis, including energy metabolism, glycolysis, oxidative stress, apoptosis, signal transduction, and synaptic functioning.

Peripheral administration of the soluble TNF inhibitor XPro1595 modifies brain immune cell profiles, decreases beta-amyloid plaque load, and rescues impaired long-term potentiation in 5xFAD mice

TL;DR: In vivo peripheral administration of XPro1595, a novel biologic that sequesters sTNF into inactive heterotrimers, reduced the age-dependent increase in activated immune cells in Tg mice, while decreasing the overall number of CD4+ T cells, indicate that Selective targeting of sT NF holds translational potential to modulate brain immune cell infiltration, dampen neuro inflammation, and prevent or delay neuronal dysfunction in AD.

Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis as a mechanism of action for aspirin-like drugs
TL;DR: Experiments with guinea-pig lung suggest that some of the therapeutic effects of sodium salicylate and aspirin-like drugs are due to inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins.
Journal ArticleDOI
TGF-beta signal transduction.
TL;DR: The transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) family of growth factors control the development and homeostasis of most tissues in metazoan organisms and mutations in these pathways are the cause of various forms of human cancer and developmental disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
An endotoxin-induced serum factor that causes necrosis of tumors
TL;DR: It is proposed that TNF mediates endotoxin-induced tumor necrosis, and that it may be responsible for the suppression of transformed cells by activated macrophages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemokines — Chemotactic Cytokines That Mediate Inflammation
TL;DR: This review introduces the burgeoning family of cytokines, with special emphasis on their role in the pathophysiology of disease and their potential as targets for therapy.

An Antidiabetic Thiazolidinedione Is a High Affinity Ligand for Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor γ (PPARγ)
Jürgen M. Lehmann,Linda B. Moore,Tracey Smith-Oliver,William O. Wilkison,Timothy M. Willson,Steven A. Kliewer +5 more
TL;DR: It is reported that thiazolidinediones are potent and selective activators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily recently shown to function in adipogenesis, and raised the intriguing possibility that PPARγ is a target for the therapeutic actions of this class of compounds.
