Plaque-Associated Oligomeric Amyloid-Beta Drives Early Synaptotoxicity in APP/PS1 Mice Hippocampus: Ultrastructural Pathology Analysis
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder characterized by initial memory impairments that progress to dementia. In this sense, synaptic dysfunction and loss have been established as the pathological ...

Galectin-3 is upregulated in frontotemporal dementia patients with subtype specificity
(Wiley, 2023-11)
INTRODUCTION Neuroinflammation is a major contributor to the progression of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Galectin-3 (Gal-3), a microglial activation regulator, holds promise as a therapeutic target and potential biomarker. ...

Dual roles of Aβ in proliferative processes in an amyloidogenic model of Alzheimer’s disease
(Nature Research (part of Springer Nature), 2017)
Alzheimer’s disease is a major neurodegenerative disorder that leads to severe cognitive deficits in the elderly population. Over the past two decades, multiple studies have focused on elucidating the causative factors ...

Galectin-3 is elevated in CSF and is associated with A beta deposits and tau aggregates in brain tissue in Alzheimer's disease
(Springer, 2022)
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is a beta-galactosidase binding protein involved in microglial activation in the central nervous system (CNS). We previously demonstrated the crucial deleterious role of Gal-3 in microglial activation ...

Distinct disease-sensitive GABAergic neurons in the perirhinal cortex of Alzheimer's mice and patients
(Wiley Open Access, 2019)
Neuronal loss is the best neuropathological substrate that correlates with cortical atrophy and dementia in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Defective GABAergic neuronal functions may lead to cortical network hyperactivity and ...

Amyloid-β impairs the phagocytosis of dystrophic synapses by astrocytes in Alzheimer's disease
(Wiley, 2020)
Reactive astrocytes and dystrophic neurites, most aberrant presynaptic elements, are found surrounding amyloid-β plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). We have previously shown that reactive astrocytes enwrap, phagocytose, ...

Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Neural Cellsas a Relevant Platform for Drug Screening inAlzheimer’s Disease
(MDPI, 2020)
Extracellular amyloid-beta deposition and intraneuronal Tau-laden neurofibrillary tanglesare prime features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The pathology of AD is very complex and still notfully understood, since different ...
Artículo
Phagocytic clearance of presynaptic dystrophies by reactive astrocytes in Alzheimer's disease
(Wiley, 2018)
Reactive astrogliosis, a complex process characterized by cell hypertrophy and upregulation ofcomponents of intermediate filaments, is a common feature in brains of Alzheimer’s patients. Reac-tive astrocytes are found in ...
Artículo
Galectin‑3, a novel endogenous TREM2 ligand, detrimentally regulates infammatory response in Alzheimer’s disease
(Springer, 2019)
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease in which the formation of extracellular aggregates of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide, fibrillary tangles of intraneuronal tau and microglial activation are ...

Monocyte-derived Cells Invade Brain Parenchyma and Amyloid Plaques in Human Alzheimer’s Disease Hippocampus
(Springer Nature, 2023)
Microglia are brain-resident myeloid cells and play a major role in the innate immune responses of the CNS and the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the contribution of nonparenchymal or brain-infiltrated ...
