  1. In vivo hyperphosphorylation of tau is associated with synaptic loss and behavioral abnormalities in the absence of tau seeds

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 48 out of 100. Nature neuroscience 2024-12-24 Disease mechanisms

    Tau pathology is a hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases, including frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

  2. The CSF p-tau181/Aβ42 Ratio Offers a Good Accuracy "In Vivo" in the Differential Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Current Alzheimer research 2019-01-01 Biomarkers

    The p-tau181/Aβ42 ratio alone might reliably detect AD pathology in heterogeneous samples of patients suffering from different types of dementia.

  3. Insulin and IGF1 signalling pathways in human astrocytes in vitro and in vivo; characterisation, subcellular localisation and modulation of the receptors

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Molecular brain 2015-08-22 Biomarkers

    IIS is functional in astrocytes.

  4. Axonal transport rates in vivo are unaffected by tau deletion or overexpression in mice

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience 2008-02-01 Biomarkers

    Elevated tau expression has been proposed as a possible basis for impaired axonal transport in Alzheimer's disease.

  5. Interferon-independent, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 gp120-mediated induction of CXCL10/IP-10 gene expression by astrocytes in vivo and in vitro

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of virology 2001-08-01 Biomarkers

    The CXC chemokine gamma interferon (IFN-gamma)-inducible protein CXCL10/IP-10 is markedly elevated in cerebrospinal fluid and brain of individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and is implicated in the pathogenesis of HIV-associated dementia (HAD).
