  1. Expression of microRNA-34a in Alzheimer's disease brain targets genes linked to synaptic plasticity, energy metabolism, and resting state network activity

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Brain research 2016-05-25 Brain scans and imaging

    Polygenetic risk factors and reduced expression of many genes in late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) impedes identification of a target(s) for disease-modifying therapies.

  2. The salience network causally influences default mode network activity during moral reasoning

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 66 out of 100. Brain : a journal of neurology 2013-04-09 Brain scans and imaging

    Second, patients with behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia have reduced recruitment of the default mode network compared with healthy control subjects when deliberating about these dilemmas.

  3. Effects of aging on default mode network activity in resting state fMRI: does the method of analysis matter?

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. NeuroImage 2010-03-12 Brain scans and imaging

    Effects of normal aging such as loss of PCC co-activity could be detected by ICA, but not by signal time course correlation analyses of DMN inter-connectivity.
