According to epidemiological studies, diabetes is more common in patients with AD, which suggests that diabetes is a significant risk factor for AD. Accelerating brain cell degeneration, worsening cognitive decline, and increasing susceptibility to AD can be attributed to pathogenic mechanisms linked to diabetes, such as impaired insulin signaling in the brain, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and vascular impairment. These factors can also lead to the accumulation of β-amyloid and tau protein phosphorylation.

Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) mediate intercellular signaling to coordinate proliferation of cell types that promote re-epithelialization of skin following injury. Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) drives cell division and is a key regulator of entry to cell cycle. To understand the potential of sEV-mediated delivery of CDK1 to reverse impaired wound healing, we generated CDK1-loaded sEVs (CDK1-sEVs) and evaluated their ability to mediate cell proliferation, re-epithelialization and downstream signaling responses in the wound bed.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder. It impairs the control of movement and balance. Parkin mutations worsen the symptoms in sporadic cases and cause the early onset of the disease.

The ADNI is detailed in Supplemental Acknowledgments.
Background: α-Synuclein (α-Syn) pathology is present in 30-50 % of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, and its interactions with tau proteins may further exacerbate pathological changes in AD. However, the specific role of different aggregation forms of α-Syn in the progression of AD remains unclear.
Objectives: To explore the relationship between various aggregation types of CSF α-Syn and Alzheimer's disease progression.

Akuammicine (AKC), an indole alkaloid, is a kappa opioid receptor (KOR) full agonist with a moderate affinity. 10-Iodo-akuammicine (I-AKC) and 10-Bromo-akuammicine (Br-AKC) showed higher affinities for the KOR with K values of 2.4 and 5.
