A new species of crinoid-associated shrimp, , is described based on specimens from Korea, although the species also occurs in Hong Kong and is likely more widespread. The new species is morphologically very similar to , but can be distinguished by the reduced supraorbital tooth on the carapace. is clearly recovered as a monophyletic species through COI barcode and molecular phylogenetic analyses based on four genetic markers (COI, 16S, H3, 18S).

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by the formation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) composed of tau aggregates. Research in animal models has generated hypotheses on the underlying mechanisms of the interaction between Aβ and tau pathology. In support of this interaction, results from clinical trials have shown that treatment with anti-Aβ monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) affects tau pathology.

Recent clinical trial outcomes for monoclonal antibodies lecanemab and donanemab, establish the relevance of targeting pathological Abeta for clearing amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease. ACI-24.

Background: Alzheimer's disease neuropathology involves the deposition in brain of aggregates enriched with microtubule-binding-region (MTBR) of tau adopting an abnormal conformation between residues 306-378 in the core of aggregates. Anti-tau drugs targeting around this domain have the potential to interfere with the cell-to-cell propagation of pathological tau. Bepranemab is a humanized monoclonal Ig4 antibody binding to tau residues 235-250.

Background: The spatiotemporal pattern of the spread of pathologically modified tau through brain regions in Alzheimer's disease (AD) can be explained by prion-like cell-to-cell seeding and propagation of misfolded tau aggregates. Hence, to develop targeted therapeutic antibodies, it is important to identify the seeding- and propagation-competent tau species. The hexapeptide VQIINK of tau is a critical region for tau aggregation, and K280 is acetylated in various tauopathies including AD.

Federal University of Technology, Akure, Ondo, Nigeria.
Background: In recent decades, epidemiological and experimental studies have looked into the role of pesticides, particularly the herbicide paraquat, in the development of Parkinson's disease. Horseradish tree (Moringa oleifera) is an ethnobotanical plant with lots of therapeutic potential, but there is a dearth of information on the bioactive properties of the seed alkaloid extracts.
Method: This study examined the modulatory effects of various concentrations of an alkaloid extract from the seeds of Horseradish Tree (Moringa oleifera) on the survival rate of flies exposed to paraquat, as well as certain biochemical and molecular markers related to Parkinson's disease in the heads of the flies.
