Trisomy 21

MUTATIONS APP Chromosome 21 Non-Coding Coding APP overexpression, possible modification of pathology/vulnerability by increased expression of other genes on chromosome 21. Neuropathology consistent with AD, usually developing by age 40 and often accompanied by CAA.

MAPT P301L

MUTATIONS MAPT 46010389 GRCh38/hg38 rs63751273 C T 44087755 GRCh37/hg19 rs63751273 C T g.123790C> T g.120969C> T Exon 10 Point, Missense Coding Strongly promotes β-sheet formation in 4R tau and accelerates the formation of paired helical filament. Decreases t

Amita Sehgal on New Role for Tau: Making Lipid Droplets in Glia?

COMMENT This very interesting finding describes a novel function for tau in the processing of peroxidated lipids from neurons. We previously showed that these lipids are transferred from neurons to glia in a daily sleep-dependent cycle, so this also indicates a r

Ruth Itzhaki on Can Heparin Delay Alzheimer’s Disease?

COMMENT It is surprising that no mention was made that not only APOE and tau, but also HSV1, along with diverse types of infectious pathogen—viruses, including SARS-COV-2, bacteria, and parasites—use HSPG for the first stage of attachment and entry into cells (Ak

Donald Weaver on Can Heparin Delay Alzheimer’s Disease?

COMMENT Heparin and heparan sulfate and are chemically related αβ-linked glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) composed of alternating sequences of glucosamine and uronic acid; the amino sugars may be N-acetylated or N-sulfated, with the latter being unique to these two poly

Per Hammarstrom on Amyloid Plaques Turn More Toxic as They Age

COMMENT This pioneering study by Hanrieder and co-workers aims to understand the initiation and progression of Aβ aggregate accumulation and correlations with CNS cell responses by spatial transcriptomics in the proximity of early and late Aβ aggregates. Chemical
