OBJECTIVE: This post hoc study of the Progesterone for Traumatic Brain Injury, Experimental Clinical Treatment (ProTECT) III trial investigates whether improving traumatic brain injury (TBI) classification, using serum biomarkers (glial fibrillary ac...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Early and cost-effective identification of amyloid positivity is crucial for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis. While amyloid PET is the gold standard, plasma biomarkers such as phosphorylated tau 217 (pTau217) provide a p...
INTRODUCTION: Recent research has suggested that neuroinflammation may be important in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. Free-water diffusion (FWD) has been proposed as a non-invasive neuroimaging-based biomarker for neuroinflammation.
This study introduces a fluorescence based sensing platform made to detect glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), a critical biomarker associated with glioblastoma and other astrocytic malignancies. Leveraging the unique optical properties of copper...

INTRODUCTION: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly. Given that AD neuropathology begins decades before symptoms, there is a dire need for effective screening tools for early detection of AD to facilitate early i...
As regulators of homeostasis, astrocytes undergo morphological changes after injury to limit the insult in central nervous system (CNS). Trimethyltin (TMT) is a known neurotoxicant that induces reactive astrogliosis in rat CNS. To evaluate the degree...
BACKGROUND: Inclusion of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) oligoclonal IgG bands (OCGB) in the revised McDonald criteria increases the sensitivity of diagnosis when dissemination in time (DIT) cannot be proven. While OCGB negative patients are unlikely to de...
