Basic Science and Pathogenesis.

Background: Recent studies have demonstrated that β2 microglobulin is an important factor in β-amyloid (Aβ) neurotoxicity and a potential target for the treatment of AD. Although β2 microglobulin, soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (sTREM2) and Glial fbrillary acidic protein (GFAP) are involved in the neuroinflammatory response to promote the development of AD, their relationship in AD pathology remains to be studied.

Method: A total of a11 participants with cerebrospinal fuid (CSF) and Plasma β2 microglobulin, CSF sTREM2, GFAP, and AD biomarkers(Aβ; phosphorylated-tau, P-tau; and total tau, T-tau) were included from the Alzheimer's disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI).

Cerebrospinal fluid β2-microglobulin promotes the tau pathology through microglia-astrocyte communication in Alzheimer's disease.

Background: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) β2-microglobulin (β2M) has been demonstrated as an important factor in β-amyloid (Aβ) neurotoxicity and a potential target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, more investigation is required to ascertain the relationship between β2M and glial activities in AD pathogenesis.

Methods: In this study, 211 participants from the Alzheimer's disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) with CSF and Plasma β2M, CSF glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (sTREM2), Aβ, phosphorylated-tau (P-tau) and total tau (T-tau) were divided into four groups, stage 0, 1, 2, and suspected non-AD pathology (SNAP) based on the National Institute on Aging- Alzheimer's Association (NIA-AA) criteria.

Associations among healthy lifestyle characteristics, neuroinflammation, and cerebrospinal fluid core biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease in cognitively intact adults: The CABLE study.

Background: The occurrence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) can be partially prevented through healthy lifestyles, but the mechanisms associated with AD pathology are unclear.

Objective: To explore associations among healthy lifestyle characteristics (HLCs), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) soluble TREM2 (sTREM2), and AD biomarkers.

Methods: From the Chinese Alzheimer's Biomarker and LifestylE (CABLE) study, 924 cognitively normal participants were enrolled in this cross-sectional analysis.

The association of the triglyceride-glucose index with Alzheimer's disease and its potential mechanisms.

Background: The correlation between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the glucose-triglyceride (TyG) index remains undetermined.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the TyG index and AD, as well as the relationship between the TyG index and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) AD biomarkers and cognition.

Methods: Six hundred twenty-eight non-dementia participants were included.

Enhanced tetracycline degradation by novel Mn-FeOOH/CNNS photocatalysts in a visible-light-driven photocatalysis coupled peroxydisulfate system.

Recently, photocatalysis combined peroxydisulfate activation under visible light (PC-PDS/Vis) was developed as a promising technology for removing antibiotics in water. Herein, Mn doped FeOOH (Mn-FeOOH) nanoclusters were grown in-situ on the surface of graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (CNNS) using a wet chemical method, which served as a visible-light-driven photocatalyst for peroxydisulfate (PDS) activation. Photovoltaic property characterizations revealed that Mn-FeOOH/CNNS owned superior light capture ability and carrier separation efficiency.
