Objective: The present study aimed to determine whether peripheral blood neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM)/amphiphysin 1 dual-labeled exosomal proteins and microRNAs (miRs) might serve as a marker for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Methods: This observational, retrospective, multicenter study used a two-stage design conducted in Beijing and Shanghai, China. The subjects included 76 patients with subjective cognitive decline (SCD), 80 with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), 76 with dementia of Alzheimer's type (AD), 40 with vascular dementia (VaD), and 40 controls in the discovery stage. These results were confirmed in the verification stage. The levels of Aβ42, Aβ, T-Tau, P-T181-tau, neurofilament light chain (NfL), and miR-29c-3p in peripheral blood amphiphysin 1 single-labeled and NCAM/amphiphysin 1 dual-labeled exosomes were captured and detected by immunoassay.
Results: In the discovery stage, the levels of Aβ42 and miR-29c-3p in peripheral blood NCAM/amphiphysin 1 dual-labeled exosome of the SCD group were significantly higher than those in control and VaD groups (all P < 0.05). The verification stage further confirmed the results of the discovery stage. Plasma NCAM/amphiphysin 1 dual-labeled exosomal miR-29c-3p showed a good diagnostic performance. The NCAM/amphiphysin 1 dual-labeled exosomal miR-29c-3p had the highest AUC for diagnosis of SCD. The levels of Aβ42, Aβ, Tau, P-T181-tau, and miR-29c-3p in peripheral blood exosomes were correlated to those in CSF (all P < 0.05). The combination of exosomal biomarkers had slightly higher diagnostic efficiency than the individual biomarkers and that the exosomal biomarkers had the same diagnostic power as the CSF biomarkers.
Conclusion: The plasma NCAM/amphiphysin 1 dual-labeled exosomal miR-29c-3p had potential advantages in the diagnosis of SCD.

Clonal haematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is associated with macrovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease and stroke. However, the effects of CHIP on microvascular complication have not been evaluated in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study included 20,712 T2D participants without prevalent diabetic microvascular complication (DMCs) and hematologic malignancy at baseline.

Background: Type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cells are critical players in maintaining peripheral tolerance, by producing high IL-10 levels in association with inducible T-cell co-stimulator (ICOS) expression. Whether these cells play a role in naturally acquired baked egg tolerance is unknown.
Objectives: Evaluate frequencies of egg-responsive Tr1 and Th2 cells in egg-allergic children that naturally acquired baked egg tolerance (BET) versus non-egg-allergic (NEA) children.

Peripheral artery disease (PAD), primarily caused by atherosclerosis, leads to the narrowing or blockage of arteries that supply blood to the limbs. This study explores the pro-angiogenic effects of L-theanine and its underlying mechanisms in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia (HLI). To evaluate L-theanine's pro-angiogenic effects, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were subjected to tube formation, migration, sprouting, and proliferation assays.

Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a very rare and aggressive hematologic malignancy, arising from plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). BPDCN frequently has, at least initially, exclusively cutaneous presentation. We present a 45-year-old woman with a 3-month history of rapidly evolving violaceous patches, infiltrated plaques, and bruise-like tumefactions, disseminated on her face and upper trunk.
