    Microglia protein profiles in CSF across Alzheimer's disease clinical stages

    Nature Aging
    Abstract

    Microglia are implicated in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology from its earliest stages, suggesting that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) microglia profiling across clinical AD stages can...

    Association of apolipoprotein E variants on Alzheimer's disease in Latin America: A systematic review and meta-analysis

    Alzheimer's & Dementia
    Abstract

    The apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele represents the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its role in genetically diverse Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) populations is...

    Alzheimer's & Dementia
    Abstract

    Introduction: Sensitive memory paradigms may allow the detection of subtle memory changes associated with early Alzheimer's pathology in individuals without established clinical symptomatology.

    Relationship between locus coeruleus and slow-wave sleep in aging and Alzheimer's disease

    Alzheimer's & Dementia
    Abstract

    Introduction: Sleep disruption, particularly loss of slow-wave sleep (SWS), is common in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its neurobiological underpinnings remain unclear. We investigated whether locus...

    Sex-specific early cognitive changes are linked to global and pathway-specific genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease in at-risk individuals

    Biology of sex differences
    Abstract

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition in which genetic predisposition plays a key role, yet the sex-specific mechanisms linking genetic risk to early cognitive changes...

    A quantitative DOPA decarboxylase biomarker for diagnosis in Lewy body disorders

    Nature Medicine
    Abstract

    Accurate diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) remains challenging, with misdiagnosis potentially leading to harmful treatment decisions. DOPA decarboxylase (DDC) shows promise as a...

    Plasma ATN biomarkers across the alzheimer's disease continuum in a Chilean community- and clinic-based cohort

    Alzheimer's Research & Therapy
    Abstract

    Background: Plasma biomarkers have emerged as robust indicators of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, offering accessible tools for staging and stratification. However, their expression across...
