Despite overall falling dementia rates in the U.S., black people remain more susceptible than whites.
Amyloids of AIMP2 found in Parkinson’s disease may seed α-synuclein aggregation.
In mice, forebrain neurons with hobbled retromers ooze fragments of tau and several BACE1 substrates into the CSF. Similar proteins are up in CSF from people with MCI and Alzheimer’s disease.
Among a growing number of blood-based tauopathy markers, this new immunoassay may offer a way to catch preclinical disease just before symptoms show up.
In mouse models of tauopathy, microglia populations are far from binary. Different activation stages emerge at different phases of disease, some marked by viral defense pathways.
