概括
这项研究发现,血神经纤维光链/总tau比率是逐渐超核性麻 (PSP) 的有希望的液体生物标志物. 这些生物标志物与PSP患者的TAU PET成像,疾病严重程度和认知功能相关.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 生物标志物发现发现
- 神经学 神经学
背景情况:
- 渐进性超核性 (PSP) 缺乏客观的诊断生物标志物.
- 准确的生物标志物对于诊断,临床试验和治疗终点至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 与对照组相比,评估PSP患者的液体生物标志物 (神经纤维光链,质纤维酸蛋白,总tau).
- 评估这些液体生物标志物与tau-PET成像,临床状况和认知功能的相关性.
主要方法:
- 来自24名PSP患者和11名对照组的脑脊髓液 (CSF) 和血样本使用SIMOA分析了NfL,GFAP和t-tau.
- 计算了生物标志物 (NfL/t-tau,GFAP/t-tau,GFAP/NfL) 的比率.

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

The fluid mosaic model was first proposed as a visual representation of research observations. The model comprises the composition and dynamics of membranes and serves as a foundation for future membrane-related studies. The model depicts the structure of the plasma membrane with a variety of components, which include phospholipids, proteins, and carbohydrates. These integral molecules are loosely bound, defining the cell’s border and providing fluidity for optimal function.

Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.

Cognitive therapy, pioneered by Aaron T. Beck in the 1960s, is a structured approach to addressing psychological distress by focusing on the influence of thoughts on emotions and behaviors. All cognitive therapies involve the basic assumption that human beings have control over their feelings, and that how individuals feel about something depends on how they think about it. Unlike psychoanalytic methods that delve into unconscious processes or humanistic approaches emphasizing...

Social psychology examines the complex interplay between individual mental processes and social interactions. Historically, the field was divided into two domains: social behavior and social cognition. Researchers focusing on social behavior analyzed actions within social contexts, such as conformity, aggression, or cooperation. Meanwhile, social cognition researchers investigated how people perceive, interpret, and mentally represent their social environments. However, modern perspectives no...
