Tony Wyss-Coray on Identification of candidate IgG biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease via combinatorial library screening.
COMMENT This report by Kodadek’s group describes a novel approach in the search for disease-specific molecular biomarkers. The authors are screening patient sera to find specific endogenous immunoglobulins that would be characteristic of a given disease. The rati
David Holtzman on Identification of candidate IgG biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease via combinatorial library screening.
COMMENT I think this new unbiased technology of looking for IgGs that bind to unique shapes on synthetic peptoids provides a valuable new methodology for discovery of IgGs that may be specific for certain disease states. The authors provide a good proof-of-concep
Wai-Tong Chien on Mark Smith, 45, Is Struck and Killed by Hit-and-Run Driver
COMMENT I am very sad to hear about death of Mark Smith. We have lost a great scientist in aging and health. As mentioned, Smith worked on a possible reactivation of the neuronal cell cycle as a mechanism in AD and the predominance of the amyloid hypothesis in Al
Virgil Muresan on Reimagining Alzheimer's disease--an age-based hypothesis.
COMMENT Karl Herrup got it right with his novel hypothesis on Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The two main brain pathological lesions associated with AD—the many forms of oligomeric Aβ and tau aggregates—most likely are not the cause, but the response to an injury. Acc
