  1. Transgenic amyloid precursor protein mouse models of amyloidosis. Incomplete models for Alzheimer's disease but effective predictors of anti-amyloid therapies

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2023-12-12 Treatments

    New mouse models of AD pathologies will add to the research armamentarium, but the early models have accurately predicted responses to amyloid therapies in humans.

  2. The Potential of Liquid Biopsy of the Brain Using Blood Extracellular Vesicles: The First Step Toward Effective Neuroprotection Against Neurodegenerative Diseases

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Molecular diagnosis & therapy 2020-09-25 Biomarkers

    Early diagnosis and biomarker-based ante-mortem tests are essential in efforts against the development of neurodegenerative diseases and can be considered primary neuroprotective measures.

  3. Is high oral dose L-arginine intake effective in leukoaraiosis? Preliminary data, study protocol and expert's opinion

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Current aging science 2013-07-01 Biomarkers

    Because of its high prevalence in over-65-year-old subjects, we hypothesized that treatment with 6 gr of Larginine, as supplementary dietary option, could be helpful in patients affected by leukoaraiosis to improve the cognitive and gait impairment often observed in these subjects (as demonstrated by the LADIS study).

  4. Toward the discovery of effective polycyclic inhibitors of alpha-synuclein amyloid assembly

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The Journal of biological chemistry 2011-07-27 Treatments

    The fibrillation of amyloidogenic proteins is a critical step in the etiology of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer and Parkinson diseases.
