“Back to Braak”: Role of Nucleus Reuniens and Subcortical Pathways in Alzheimer’s Disease Progression
BackgroundPatients with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) exhibit structural alterations of the thalamus that correlate with clinical symptoms. However, given...

Indication of retrograde tau spreading along Braak stages and functional connectivity pathways
PurposeTau pathology progression in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is explained through the network degeneration hypothesis and the neuropathological Braak...

Plasma autoantibodies to glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) react with brain areas according to Braak staging of Parkinson’s disease
Idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by a progredient degeneration of the brain, starting at deep subcortical areas such as the...

The spatial extent of tauopathy on [18F]MK-6240 tau PET shows stronger association with cognitive performances than the standard uptake value ratio in Alzheimer’s disease
Purpose[ 18 F]MK-6240, a second-generation tau PET tracer, is increasingly used for the detection and the quantification of in vivo cerebral tauopathy...

Role of GBA variants in Lewy body disease neuropathology
Rare and common GBA variants are risk factors for both Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). However, the degree to which GBA ...

Tau pathology as determinant of changes in atrophy and cerebral blood flow: a multi-modal longitudinal imaging study
PurposeTau pathology is associated with concurrent atrophy and decreased cerebral blood flow (CBF) in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but less is known...
-
Tau seeds occur before earliest Alzheimer’s changes and are prevalent across neurodegenerative diseases
Tau neurofibrillary tangles are a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease neuropathological change. However, it remains largely unclear how distinctive...

A comparison of visual assessment and semi-quantification for the diagnostic and prognostic use of [18F]flortaucipir PET in a memory clinic cohort
Purpose[ 18 F]Flortaucipir PET is a powerful diagnostic and prognostic tool for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Tau status definition is mainly based in the...
