  1. Molecular mechanisms and biomarkers in neurodegenerative disorders: a comprehensive review

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 57 out of 100. Molecular biology reports 2025-03-26 Biomarkers

    Neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), and Huntington's disease (HD), are significant global health challenges, owing to their profound impact on cognitive, motor, and behavioral functions.

  2. The contribution of vascular risk factors in neurodegenerative disorders: from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 53 out of 100. Alzheimer's research & therapy 2020-08-04 Biomarkers

    For MCI subjects, dyslipidemia may contribute to AD-related neurodegeneration while hypertension may contribute to vascular pathology.

  3. Circulating microRNAs as potential biomarkers for psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Progress in neurobiology 2019-12-07 Tau biomarkers

    Circulating microRNAs (cimiRNAs) are a class of non-encoding RNAs found in bodily fluids such as blood, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and tears.

  4. Diversity of astroglial responses across human neurodegenerative disorders and brain aging

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Brain pathology (Zurich, Switzerland) 2017-09-01 Biomarkers

    Astrogliopathy refers to alterations of astrocytes occurring in diseases of the nervous system, and it implies the involvement of astrocytes as key elements in the pathogenesis and pathology of diseases and injuries of the central nervous system.

  5. Cerebral Toxocariasis: Silent Progression to Neurodegenerative Disorders?

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Clinical microbiology reviews 2015-07-01 Biomarkers

    Toxocara canis and T. cati are highly prevalent nematode infections of the intestines of dogs and cats.
