A new design of a highly nonlinear dispersion-shifted fiber (HNDSF) with an effective area of 9.3 microm2 is presented. The three-dimensional beam propagation method combined with the Gaussian approximation method is used to analyze the new HNDSF. This innovative HNDSF has a unique triple-cladding structure that can offer not only a large nonlinear coefficient but also low attenuation, low splicing, and bending losses. It is a suitable candidate to implement an all-fiber wavelength converter by four-wave mixing.

Background: DYRK1A overexpression, common in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's (AD), contributes to neurofibrillary tangles via Tau protein hyperphosphorylation and amyloid plaque formation, key AD hallmarks. Therefore, DYRK1A has been regarded as a novel target for neurodegenerative diseases. However, developing DYRK1A selective inhibitors has been a difficult challenge due to the highly conserved ATP-binding site of protein kinases, particularly among the CMGC family.

Background: Alzheimer disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that is accountable for the leading case of dementia in elder people. Before, only symptomatic treatments are available for AD. Since 2021, two anti-amyloid antibodies aducanumab and lecanemab have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration.

Recent work focusing on patients with apoE4 alleles has highlighted the association of brain cholesterol dysregulation with elevated pathological burden and neurodegeneration. These studies have highlighted the importance of the nuclear receptor Liver X receptor (LXR) for developing AD therapies.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: VG-3927 is a highly potent, selective, brain penetrant, oral small molecule TREM2 agonist that is currently under development for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). TREM2, a receptor expressed on microglia in the brain is critical to microglial function in health and in disease. Among microglia-associated AD risk genes, partial loss-of-function variants of TREM2 confer 2-3 fold increase in risk for developing AD, motivating efforts to identify pharmacological agonists targeting TREM2 as a therapeutic option.

University College London, London, United Kingdom.
Background: The progressive nature of dementia and the complex needs means that people living with dementia require tailored approaches to address their changing care needs over time. These include physical multimorbidity, psychological, behavioural, and cognitive symptoms and possible risks arising from these and helping family caregivers. However, provision of these interventions is highly variable between and within countries, partly due to uncertainty about their efficacy and scarce resources.
