背景情况:
- 早期阿尔茨海默氏病 (AD) 的特征是 β-粉样蛋白 (Aβ) 沉积在关联皮质和 tau 病理在内腔皮质 (EC).
- 这些病理的最初不同位置的原因尚不清楚.
- 了解Aβ和tau之间的相互作用对于开发有效的AD治疗至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 调查局部阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 病理对网络对网络相互作用的影响.
- 阐明β-粉样蛋白 (Aβ) 沉积和陶积累之间的关系.
- 探索将Aβ与远程tau病理联系起来的因果机制.

- 多模态正子发射断层扫描 (PET) 成像,以量化Aβ和tau沉积.
- 分析默认模式网络 (DMN) 和中间叶 (MTL) 之间的相互作用.
主要成果:
- 阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 病理改变了默认模式网络 (DMN) 和中间叶 (MTL) 之间的相互作用,将它们从抑制转变为刺激.
- 增加的β-粉样蛋白 (Aβ) 水平导致DMN的过度激发.
- 这种DMN过度兴奋驱动MTL中的过度兴奋性,预测在内皮层 (EC) 积累的速度.
结论:

Alzheimer's Disease: Overview
492
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a continually advancing neurodegenerative disorder, distinguished by escalating memory loss, cognitive dysfunction, and dementia. The disease unfolds in three stages: preclinical, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia. Its onset is insidious, and the progression gradual, with the cause not well explained by other disorders.
The clinical diagnosis of AD hinges on the presence of memory and other cognitive impairments. Biomarkers, such as changes in Aβ...

Amyloid Fibrils
9.6K
Amyloid fibrils are aggregates of misfolded proteins. Under most circumstances, misfolded proteins are either refolded by chaperone proteins or degraded by the proteasome. However, in the case of a mutation or a disease, these proteins can accumulate to form large clusters and often further assemble to form elongated fibers, called fibrils.
Amyloid deposits were observed as early as 1639 in the liver and the spleen. In 1854, Rudolph Virchow performed iodine staining,...
