The MCI-Park mice are compound mutant (Ndufs2fl/fl; DAT IREScre/+) animals in which Ndufs2, a gene encoding a core subunit of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, is selectively inactivated in ...
This interactive resource organizes decades of data on biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. Biomarker measurements from the cerebrospinal fluid and blood are curated from the primary literature and ...
When Alois Alzheimer described the case of Auguste D. to an audience of fellow psychiatrists in Tuebingen, Germany, in 1906, what set her case apart was the fact that her dementia appeared before she ...

At a young age, this transgenic mouse develops severe motor impairment and other ALS-related phenotypes. Notably, it develops robust neuronal loss in the spinal cord, denervation of neuromuscular ...
This brain bank, biobank, and biospecimen bank derives its donors from the Arizona Study of Aging and Neurodegenerative Disease (AZSAND), a longitudinal clinicopathological study of elderly volunteers ...
The slight slowing of cognitive decline achieved by Leqembi and perhaps by Aduhelm has revived debate around how much change is needed to be “clinically meaningful.” Two recent papers—one a report ...
In a watershed moment for the field, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration today approved the first Alzheimer’s treatment that tackles the underlying disease pathology. Biogen and Eisai’s anti-amyloid ...
This database is a repository of normal genetic variability, designed to be a tool for researchers who study neurodegenerative disease. It contains whole-exome sequencing results from nearly 500 ...
Biogen’s hopes for a quick regulatory approval of its anti-Aβ antibody aducanumab may be dimming. An advisory panel convened by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration was unimpressed by the evidence ...
After two years, half of AD patients taking gantenerumab become amyloid-negative. One-third develop ARIA-E, usually without symptoms. Lilly’s N3pG, directed against pyroglutamate Aβ, clears plaques in ...
Will Biogen’s aducanumab become the first drug approved to slow progression of Alzheimer’s disease? Biogen’s licensing application for the biologic ran into headwinds at a U.S. Food and Drug ...
