PiB is an inhibitor of the peptidylprolyl isomerase Pin-1. Inhibition of Pin-1 leads to destabilization of the transcription factor Nanog, which is required for maintenance of embryonic stem cell cultures.

Light upconversion is a very powerful tool in bioimaging as it can eliminate autofluorescence, increase imaging contrast, reduce irradiation damage, and increase excitation penetration depth in vivo. In particular, triplet-triplet annihilation upconverting (TTA-UC) nanoparticles and liposomes offer high upconversion efficiency

Amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) data are commonly expressed as binary measures of cortical deposition. However, not all individuals with high cortical amyloid will experience rapid cognitive decline. Motivated by postmortem data, we evaluated a three-stage PET classification: low cortical;

Background: Imaging studies in Alzheimer's disease (AD) have yet to answer the underlying questions concerning the relationship among tau retention, neuroinflammation, network disruption and cognitive decline. We compared the spatial retention patterns of 18F-THK5351 and resting state network (RSN) disruption
The relationship between body-mass index (BMI) and Alzheimer´s disease (AD) has been extensively investigated. However, BMI alterations in preclinical individuals with autosomal dominant AD (ADAD) have not yet been investigated. We analyzed cross-sectional data from 230 asymptomatic members of families
Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD, 62(4), 1691-1702 (2018-04-05)
On target 18F-Flortaucipir (FTP) binding of Alzheimer's disease tau aggregates and off-target binding of melanocytes have been demonstrated with autoradiography. We aimed to investigate the hypothesis that if binding in choroid plexus (CP) is due to melanocytes, the signal would
