  1. The Association of Age-Related and Off-Target Retention with Longitudinal Quantification of [18F]MK6240 Tau PET in Target Regions

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 67 out of 100. Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine 2022-11-17 Brain scans and imaging

    Inferior cerebellar gray matter SUV did not differ on the basis of diagnosis and amyloid-β status, cross-sectionally and over time. [ 18 F]MK6240 uptake significantly differed between CUY and CU adults in the putamen or pallidum (affecting ∼75% of the region) and in the Braak II region (affecting ∼35%).

  2. The phytoprotective agent sulforaphane prevents inflammatory degenerative diseases and age-related pathologies via Nrf2-mediated hormesis

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Pharmacological research 2020-11-04 Brain scans and imaging

    In numerous experimental models, sulforaphane (SFN) is shown herein to induce hormetic dose responses that are not only common but display endpoints of biomedical and clinical relevance.

  3. New Insights into the Spontaneous Human Alzheimer's Disease-Like Model Octodon degus: Unraveling Amyloid-β Peptide Aggregation and Age-Related Amyloid Pathology

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2018-01-01 Biomarkers

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia worldwide.

  4. Oxidative stress and epigenetic regulation in ageing and age-related diseases

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. International journal of molecular sciences 2013-08-28 Genetics

    Recent statistics indicate that the human population is ageing rapidly.

  5. Preservation of neuronal number despite age-related cortical brain atrophy in elderly subjects without Alzheimer disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of neuropathology and experimental neurology 2008-12-01 Brain scans and imaging

    Cerebral volume loss has long been associated with normal aging, but whether this is due to aging itself or to age-related diseases, including incipient Alzheimer disease, is uncertain.
