In Alzheimer's disease, the molecular pathogenesis of the extracellular Aβ-amyloid (Aβ) instigation of intracellular tau accumulation is poorly understood. We employed a high-resolution PET scanner, with low detection thresholds, to examine the Aβ-ta...

Neuropathologic assessment during autopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing neurodegenerative disorders. Neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer disease (AD) neuropathological change, are a continuous process from normal aging rather than c...
PURPOSE: Automated diagnosis and prognosis of Alzheimer's Disease remain a challenging problem that machine learning (ML) techniques have attempted to resolve in the last decade. This study introduces a first-of-its-kind color-coded visualization mec...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a severe, growing, multifactorial disorder affecting millions of people worldwide characterized by cognitive decline and neurodegeneration. The accumulation of tau protein into paired helical filaments is one of the major ...
The positron emission tomography (PET) with F-flortaucipir can distinguish individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) from cognitively unimpaired (CU) individuals. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of F-flort...
Background PET can be used for amyloid-tau-neurodegeneration (ATN) classification in Alzheimer disease, but incurs considerable cost and exposure to ionizing radiation. MRI currently has limited use in characterizing ATN status. Deep learning techniq...
With the advent of therapeutics with potential to slow Alzheimer's disease progression the necessity of understanding the diagnostic value of plasma biomarkers is critical, not only for understanding the etiology and progression of Alzheimer's diseas...

The ordered assembly of Tau protein into filaments characterizes Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases, and thus, stabilization of Tau protein is a promising avenue for tauopathies therapy. To dissect the underlying aggregation mechanisms ...
Intracellular tau fibrils are sources of neurotoxicity and oxidative stress in Alzheimer's. Current drug discovery efforts have focused on molecules with tau fibril disaggregation and antioxidation functions. However, recent studies suggest that memb...

Alzheimer disease (AD) exhibits spatially heterogeneous 3- or 4-repeat tau deposition across participants. Our overall goal was to develop an automated method to quantify the heterogeneous burden of tau deposition into a single number that would be c...
