Selective neuroimmune modulation by type I interferon drives neuropathology and neurologic dysfunction following traumatic brain injury
Accumulating evidence suggests that type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling is a key contributor to immune cell-mediated neuropathology in...

Variants in the MS4A cluster interact with soluble TREM2 expression on biomarkers of neuropathology
Recent evidence suggests that Alzheimer’s disease (AD) genetic risk variants (rs1582763 and rs6591561) of the MS4A locus are genome-wide significant...

Pharmacological inhibition of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 prevents memory deficits and reduces neuropathology in APP/PS1 mice
RationaleExtracellular proteolytic activity plays an important role in memory formation and the preservation of cognitive function. Previous studies...

The small GTPase Rit2 modulates LRRK2 kinase activity, is required for lysosomal function and protects against alpha-synuclein neuropathology
In Parkinson’s disease (PD) misfolded alpha-synuclein (aSyn) accumulates in the substantia nigra, where dopaminergic neurons are progressively lost....

Terahertz Irradiation Improves Cognitive Impairments and Attenuates Alzheimer’s Neuropathology in the APPSWE/PS1DE9 Mouse: A Novel Therapeutic Intervention for Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by the deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ), neurofibrillary tangles,...

The relationship between synaptodendritic neuropathology and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders is moderated by cognitive reserve
We examined whether cognitive reserve moderated the relationship between neurodegeneration and cognition in 67 postmortem persons with HIV (PWH) who...

Non-invasive systemic viral delivery of human alpha-synuclein mimics selective and progressive neuropathology of Parkinson’s disease in rodent brains
BackgroundAlpha-synuclein (α-syn) aggregation into proteinaceous intraneuronal inclusions, called Lewy bodies (LBs), is the neuropathological...

Glucosylceramide synthase inhibition reduces ganglioside GM3 accumulation, alleviates amyloid neuropathology, and stabilizes remote contextual memory in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease
BackgroundGangliosides are highly enriched in the brain and are critical for its normal development and function. However, in some rare...

Traumatic brain injury alters the effects of class II invariant peptide (CLIP) antagonism on chronic meningeal CLIP + B cells, neuropathology, and neurobehavioral impairment in 5xFAD mice
BackgroundTraumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and accumulating evidence supports a role for...

Inhibition of 2-Arachidonoylglycerol Metabolism Alleviates Neuropathology and Improves Cognitive Function in a Tau Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia, which affects more than 5 million individuals in the USA. Unfortunately, no effective...

Impact of APOE ε4 genotype on initial cognitive symptoms differs for Alzheimer’s and Lewy body neuropathology
BackgroundAPOE ε4 carrier status is known to increase odds of amnestic presentations with Alzheimer’s pathology. It is unknown how APOE ε4 carrier...
