Impairment of vascular pathways of cerebral β-amyloid (Aβ) elimination contributes to Alzheimer disease (AD). Vascular damage is commonly associated with diabetes. Here we show in human tissues and AD-model rats that bloodborne islet amyloid polypeptide (amylin) secreted from the pancreas perturbs cerebral Aβ clearance.

- Toxoplasmosis, caused by Toxoplasma gondii, significantly impacts livestock, particularly sheep and goats, leading to issues like abortion.
- Researchers amplified specific DNA sequences for key proteins (SAG1 and GRA7) from T. gondii using PCR, then expressed and purified these proteins for further testing.
- The study demonstrated that using a cocktail of the recombinant proteins improved diagnostic accuracy for caprine toxoplasmosis through ELISA, marking a significant advancement in serological detection methods.
