Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
University of Kentucky Sanders-Brown Center on Aging, Lexington, KY, USA.
Background: The presence of multiple comorbid pathologic features in late-onset dementia has been well documented across cohort studies that incorporate autopsy evaluation. It is likely that such mixed pathology potentially confounds the results of interventional trials that are designed to target a solitary pathophysiologic mechanism in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD).
Method: The UK ADRC autopsy database was screened for participants who had previously engaged in therapeutic interventional trials for Alzheimer's disease, vascular cognitive impairment, dementia, and/or ADRD prevention trials from 2005 to the present.

Background: Abnormal aggregation and accumulation of tau is a hallmark of tauopathy including Alzheimer's disease. Effective targeting of tau for therapeutic purposes requires a clear understanding of its epitope landscape with identification of a key pathogenic tau species. Despite numerous proposed and tested tau epitopes, ranging from the N-terminus to the microtubule-binding region and C-terminus, the most effective target remains elusive.

The recent positive phase 3 clinical trials of new treatments and their licensing and roll-out in the US and other countries represents a major turning point in Alzheimer's disease research. As has been the case with many other diseases, e.g.

Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA), Klosterneuburg, Austria.
Background: We identified small molecule tricyclic pyrone compound CP2 as a mild mitochondrial complex I (MCI) inhibitor that induces neuroprotection in multiple mouse models of AD. One of the major concerns while targeting mitochondria is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). CP2 consists of two diastereoisomers, D1 and D2, with distinct activity and toxicity profiles.
