MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are associated with amyloid-β (Aβ) dysmetabolism, a pivotal factor in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study unveiled a novel miRNA, microRNA-32533 (miR-32533), featuring a distinctive base sequence identified through RNA sequencing of the APPswe/PSEN1dE9 (APP/PS1) mouse brain. Its role and underlying mechanisms were subsequently explored. Bioinformatics and confirmatory experiments revealed that miR-32533 had a novel 23-base sequence with minimal coding potential, functioning within the Drosha ribonuclease III (Drosha)/Dicer 1, ribonuclease III (Dicer)-dependent canonical pathway and identifiable via northern blot. miR-32533 was abundantly brain-distributed and downregulated in diverse AD-related models, including APP/PS1 and five familial AD (5×FAD) mouse brains and AD patient plasma. Overexpression or inhibition of miR-32533 led to improvements or exacerbations in cognitive dysfunction, respectively, by modulating Aβ production, apoptosis, oxidation, and neuroinflammation through targeting cAMP-responsive element binding protein 5 (CREB5), which interacted with α disintegrin and metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10), beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1), and presenilin 1 (PS1) promoters, thereby enhancing Aβ production through BACE1 and PS1 upregulation while suppressing non-amyloidogenic amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing via ADAM10 downregulation. Furthermore, modulation of the miR-32533/CREB5 axis ameliorated or worsened cognitive impairment by inhibiting or amplifying Aβ overproduction through the BACE1-involved amyloidogenic and ADAM10-involved non-amyloidogenic pathways. Overall, the findings suggest miR-32533 as a regulator of Aβ metabolism, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation, establishing the miR-32533/CREB5 signaling pathways as potential therapeutic targets for combating Aβ accumulation and cognitive deficits in AD.

Scope: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia, lack of effective therapeutic interventions. In this study, we investigate the impact of intermittent fasting (IF), an alternative strategy of calorie restriction, on cognitive functions and AD-like pathology in a transgenic mouse model of AD.
Methods And Results: APP/PS1 mice at 6 months were randomly allocated to two dietary groups: one receiving ad libitum (AL) feeding and the other undergoing IF for 1 month.

Background: Hypotensive episodes detected by 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring capture daily cumulative hypotensive stress and could be clinically relevant to cognitive impairment, but this relationship remains unclear.
Methods: We included participants from the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (receiving intensive or standard BP treatment) who had 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring measured near the 27-month visit and subsequent biannual cognitive assessments. We evaluated the associations of hypotensive episodes (defined as systolic BP drops of ≥20 mm Hg between 2 consecutive measurements that reached <100 mm Hg) and hypotensive duration (cumulative time of systolic BP <100 mm Hg) with subsequent cognitive function using adjusted linear mixed models.

Neurodegenerative diseases represent a group of disorders characterized by progressive degeneration of neurons in the central nervous system, leading to a range of cognitive, motor, and sensory impairments. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the association between neurodegenerative diseases and olfactory dysfunction (OD). Characterized by a decline in the ability to detect or identify odors, OD has been observed in various conditions, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

Mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD-MCI) as an independent risk factor for dementia in Parkinson's disease has prognostic value in predicting dementia in PD patients. It was found that the calculation of cognitive function decision-making could better evaluate the cognitive function of PD-MCI. Therefore, this study explored deficits in decision-making cognitive function in PD-MCI population, and mined novel digital biomarkers for recognizing early cognitive decline in PD-MCI through an independently designed maze decision-making digital assessment paradigm.
