Background: The vicious cycle between depression and dementia increases the risk of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) pathogenesis and pathology. This study investigates therapeutic effectiveness versus side effects and the underlying mechanisms of intranasal dantrolene nanoparticles (IDNs) to treat depression behavior and memory loss in 5XFAD mice.
Method: 5XFAD and wild-type B6SJLF1/J mice were treated with IDNs (IDN, 5 mg/kg) in Ryanodex formulation for a duration of 12 weeks.
Background: Focused ultrasound (FUS)-induced blood-brain barrier opening (BBBO) is a technique for safely, non-invasively, and transiently opening the blood brain barrier in a targeted area of the brain. Pre-clinical and clinical studies have shown that FUS is capable of decreasing amyloid plaque load and stimulating neurogenesis in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) models, in addition to being safe for use in human patients. However, the effect of FUS-BBBO on neurons has not yet been characterized, despite its crucial role in cognition and regulating brain function.

Anti-Aβ immunotherapies are controversial, in part because of high rates of serious side effects including edema, microhemorrhages, and siderosis, highlighting the importance of the development of alternative Aβ clearance strategy. Here, we introduce a bioinspired nanoparticle named MG-PE3 crossing the human blood-brain barrier (BBB) and clearing Aβ with no adverse effect.

Yonsei University, Incheon, Incheon, Korea, Republic of (South).
Background: Cyclin Y (CCNY) is a member of cyclin protein family inhibiting long-term synaptic plasticity, which is related to the learning and memory function in neuronal system. Recently, CCNY has been reported to associate with the cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Method: In this study, we discovered PFTAIRE peptide to diminish CCNY protein level and to ameliorate cognitive dysfunction in AD.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center, Suita, Osaka, Japan.
Background: Cilostazol, a selective type-3 phosphodiesterase inhibitor, ameliorates β-amyloid accumulation by facilitating intramural periarterial drainage.
Method: Patients with mild cognitive impairment were registered in the COMCID study, an investigator-initiated, double-blinded, multi-center, phase-II clinical trial. The primary endpoint was the Mini-Mental State Examination score.
