  1. γ-Secretase cleavage of the Alzheimer risk factor TREM2 is determined by its intrinsic structural dynamics

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. The EMBO journal 2020-08-24 TREM2 and immune genetics

    Sequence variants of the microglial expressed TREM2 (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2) are a major risk factor for late onset Alzheimer's disease.

  2. Within-patient correspondence of amyloid-β and intrinsic network connectivity in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Brain : a journal of neurology 2014-04-26 Brain scans and imaging

    However, the observed spatial extent of amyloid-β exceeds these tightly circumscribed areas, suggesting that previous studies may have underestimated the negative impact of amyloid-β on intrinsic connectivity.

  3. Spatial patterns of intrinsic brain activity in mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease: a resting-state functional MRI study

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Human brain mapping 2010-11-12 Brain scans and imaging

    We used resting-state functional MRI to investigate spatial patterns of spontaneous brain activity in 22 healthy elderly subjects, as well as 16 mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and 16 Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients.
