    A novel PET probe to selectively image heat shock protein 90α/β isoforms in the brain

    Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are present throughout the brain. They function as molecular chaperones, meaning they help with the folding and unfolding of large protein complexes. These chaperones are vital in th...

    Human early-onset dementia caused by DAP12 deficiency reveals a unique signature of dysregulated microglia

    The TREM2–DAP12 receptor complex sustains microglia functions. Heterozygous hypofunctional TREM2 variants impair microglia, accelerating late-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Homozygous inactivating variants of TREM2 o...

    Epilepsy surgery without lipoma removal for temporal lobe epilepsy associated with lipoma in the Sylvian fissure

    Epileptic seizure is the common symptom associated with lipomas in the Sylvian fissure (Sylvian lipomas). Removal of these lipomas carries risks of hemorrhage and brain damage. We report a surgical strategy of...

    Age-related demethylation of the TDP-43 autoregulatory region in the human motor cortex

    In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43), which is encoded by TARDBP, forms aggregates in the motor cortex. This aggregate formation may be triggered by an increase in the TDP-4...
