    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 60 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2023-12-17 Biomarkers

    GFAP, NfL, and p-tau181 are valuable predictors of cognition and function across common neurodegenerative diseases, and may be useful in specialized clinics and clinical trials.

  2. The dynamic mechanism of presenilin-1 function: Sensitive gate dynamics and loop unplugging control protein access

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neurobiology of disease 2016-02-04 Biomarkers

    There is no molecular explanation for the many presenilin 1 (PSEN1) mutations causing Alzheimer's disease, but both gain of function relating to amyloid production and loss of isolated PSEN1 function have been implied.

  3. Micro RNA-125b (miRNA-125b) function in astrogliosis and glial cell proliferation

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neuroscience letters 2010-03-27 Biomarkers

    Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are post-transcriptional modulators of gene expression that regulate the stability and translation of their target messenger RNAs (mRNAs).
