Histopathological studies in Alzheimer's disease (AD) suggest severe and region-specific neurodegeneration of the basal forebrain cholinergic system (BFCS). Here, we studied the between-center reliability and diagnostic accuracy of MRI-based BFCS volumetry in a large multicenter data set, including participants with prodromal (n = 41) or clinically manifest AD (n = 134) and 148 cognitively heal...
The prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor dimethyloxallyl glycine (DMOG) has been increasingly studied with regards to stem cell therapy. Previous studies have demonstrated that endogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may be mobilized into peripheral circulation by pharmaceutical preconditioning. In addition, our previous study confirmed that DMOG, as a novel mobilization agent, could induce mouse/rat ...
We examined the degree of neuronal loss from the nucleus basalis of Meynert (nbM) in two groups of Alzheimer patients differing in the degree of intellectual impairment. Significant cell loss from the nbM was found only in the more severely demented group of patients. Mean cell counts (per 10 mu paraffin section) were compiled separately for the anterior, intermediate and posterior subdivisions...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a degenerative disorder where the distribution of pathology throughout the brain is not random but follows a predictive pattern used for pathological staging. While the involvement of defined functional systems is fairly well established for more advanced stages, the initial sites of degeneration are still ill defined. The prevailing concept suggests an origin within...
OBJECTIVES To determine the level of serum procalcitonin, blood leukocyte count (TLC) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in children with bacterial and non bacterial meningitis and document their efficacy in differential diagnosis. Also described are procalcitonin levels variation during treatment. METHODS From March 2005 to February 2008, we evaluated 38 clinically suspected meningitis patients in...
Similar signaling pathways could operate in both normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and leukemia stem cells (LSCs). Thus, targeting LSCs signaling without substantial toxicities to normal HSPCs remains challenging. SALL1, is a member of the transcriptional network that regulates stem cell pluripotency, and lacks significant expression in most adult tissues, including normal ...
Cholinergic deficiency has been implicated in the pathogenesis of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI), but the extent of involvement and underlying mechanism remain unclear. In this study, targeting the early stage of VCI, we determined regional atrophy within the basal forebrain and deficiency in cholinergic pathways in 25 patients with vascular cognitive impairment no dementia (VCIND) compare...
AIMS Bone marrow-derived smooth muscle cells (BM-SMCs) have high potential as an autologous cell source of vascular progenitors but normal cell function and turnover frequency may decline with age. In this study we set out to study the effects of organismal ageing on the molecular and functional properties of BM-SMCs. METHODS AND RESULTS To address this issue, we employed a smooth muscle alph...
DEK is important in regulating cellular processes including proliferation, differentiation and maintenance of stem cell phenotype. The translocation t(6;9) in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), which fuses DEK with NUP214, confers a poor prognosis and a higher risk of relapse. The over-expression of DEK in AML has been reported, but different studies have shown diminished levels in pediatric and pro...
The use of excitotoxins to produce animal models of human neurodegenerative disorders such as Huntington’s disease and temporal lobe epilepsy has been proposed (17). Neurotoxic (7, 9, 11) or electrothermic (15, 16) lesions of the nucleus basalis magnocellularis (nbM) produce marked reductions in all presynaptic cholinergic markers in the neocortex, indicating that a major component of the choli...
