  1. Docosanoids and elovanoids from omega-3 fatty acids are pro-homeostatic modulators of inflammatory responses, cell damage and neuroprotection

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Molecular aspects of medicine 2018-10-01 Brain scans and imaging

    The functional significance of the selective enrichment of the omega-3 essential fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22C and 6 double bonds) in cellular membrane phospholipids of the nervous system is being clarified by defining its specific roles on membrane protein function and by the uncovering of the bioactive mediators, docosanoids and elovanoids (ELVs).

  2. Genome-wide, high-content siRNA screening identifies the Alzheimer's genetic risk factor FERMT2 as a major modulator of APP metabolism

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Acta neuropathologica 2016-12-08 Genetics

    Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified 19 susceptibility loci for Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  3. SFRPs act as negative modulators of ADAM10 to regulate retinal neurogenesis

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Nature neuroscience 2011-04-10 Brain scans and imaging

    It is well established that retinal neurogenesis in mouse embryos requires the activation of Notch signaling, but is independent of the Wnt signaling pathway.
