Apolipoprotein-E (APOE) genetic testing for Alzheimer’s disease is becoming more important as clinical trials are increasingly targeting individuals carrying APOE-ε4 alleles. Little is known about the interest...
Disturbances in brain cholesterol homeostasis may be involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Lipid-lowering medications could interfere with neurodegenerative processes in AD through choleste...

Clinical variants of primary progressive aphasia (PPA) are diagnosed based on characteristic patterns of language deficits, supported by corresponding neural changes on brain imaging. However, there is (i) con...
White matter (WM) microstructural changes in the hippocampal cingulum bundle (CBH) in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have been described in cohorts of largely European ancestry but are lacking in other populations.
Neurodegeneration and structural changes in the brain due to amyloid deposition have been observed even in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). EEG measurement is considered an effective tool beca...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by cognitive dysfunction and amyloid plaques composed of the amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ). APOE is the greatest genetic risk for AD with APOE4 increasing risk up to ~ 15-fol...
NeuroEPO plus is a recombinant human erythropoietin without erythropoietic activity and shorter plasma half-life due to its low sialic acid content. NeuroEPO plus prevents oxidative damage, neuroinflammation, ...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD) are two of the commonest causes of dementia in the elderly. Of the myriad biomolecules implicated in dementia pathogenesis, sphingolipids have attracted rel...
Genome-wide association studies demonstrate that Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has a highly polygenic architecture, where thousands of independent genetic variants explain risk with high classification accuracy. Th...
Developing a screening method for identifying individuals at higher risk of elevated brain amyloid burden is important to reduce costs and burden to patients in clinical trials on Alzheimer’s disease or the cl...
