Abstract

The p75 neurotrophin receptor ectodomain (p75NTR‐ECD) has been implicated in amyloid‐β‐related neurotoxicity, but cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels in late‐life depression (LLD) remain uncertain. We compared clinically diagnosed Alzheimer's disease (AD), LLD, and healthy controls (HC) and reassessed exploratory symptom and cognitive associations.

172. Cerebrospinal fluid p75 neurotrophin receptor ectodomain differs between Alzheimer’s disease and late-life depression: links to cognition, sleep, and anxiety

Abstract Background Differentiating late-life depression (LLD) from prodromal or early Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is clinically difficult because affective and cognitive symptoms overlap and a subset of LLD patients shows amyloid-β (Aβ) positivity, limiting the specificity of core CSF Aβ/tau biomarkers. The p75 neurotrop...

miR‐214‐3p and NCKAP1: A microglial functional dimension of Alzheimer's progression

Abstract INTRODUCTION Biological Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology does not fully explain the marked heterogeneity in clinical severity or progression. We investigated whether patient‐derived induced microglia‐like cell (iMG) profiles capture a functional dimension of AD progression beyond conventional plasma biomarke...

TMEM106B is a selective modulator of TDP‐43 pathology in Alzheimer's disease

Co‐pathologies – including Lewy body, vascular, and TDP‐43 lesions – are common in Alzheimer's disease (AD), contributing to its clinical and pathological heterogeneity. Genetic risk factors may drive mixed pathology presentation, but their influence on the development of specific co‐pathologies remains unclear.

The Alzheimer's disease risk gene SORL1 is a regulator of excitatory neuronal function

Synaptic dysfunction is an early feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and proper localization of proteins involved in pre‐ and post‐synaptic composition is dependent on endosomal recycling and trafficking, cellular processes involving the AD risk gene sortilin‐related receptor 1 (SORL1).

Changes in serum β‐synuclein precede blood biomarkers of Alzheimer pathology in Down syndrome

There is a need for early, objective markers of Alzheimer's disease (AD)‐related synapse dysfunction in adults with Down syndrome (DS). The presynaptic protein β‐synuclein is elevated in the blood of adults with DS. This study evaluates the positioning of these changes relative to changes in pathophysiological blood bi...
