Despite extensive research on WMH in Alzheimer's disease (AD), their prevalence in behavioral variant Frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) remains less explored. Additionally, Latin American countries (LA) exhibit a higher prevalence of cerebrovascular disease due to distinct demographic, socioeconomic, cultural, and ethno-racial factors.

Background: Emerging evidence suggests environmental factors, such as chronic pesticide exposure, may influence cognitive functioning, yet research in this area remains limited, particularly in rural Indian settings. Our objective was to investigate the potential link between pesticide exposure and cognitive performance in an aging population from rural India.

Background: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were obtained from patients across different stages of Parkinson's disease (PD) progression and stimulated ex vivo to develop biomarkers for predicting PD progression.
Method: PBMCs obtained at one time-point from patients with moderate stage PD (>5 years after diagnosis) (n = 30), early stage PD (<5 years after diagnosis) (n = 27), prodromal PD (rapid-eye-movement sleep behavior disorder patients) (n = 14), and healthy controls (HCs) (n = 9) were isolated from whole blood and cryopreserved. Samples were thawed, then pan-monocytes and T-cell populations were isolated from PBMCs and subjected to treatment with vehicle or IFN-γ.
