Inflammation as a central mechanism in Alzheimer's disease Tập 4 Số 1 - Trang 575-590 - 2018
Jefferson W. Kinney, Shane M. Bemiller, Andrew S. Murtishaw, Amanda M. Leisgang, Arnold Salazar, Bruce T. Lamb
AbstractAlzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder
that is characterized by cognitive decline and the presence of two core
pathologies, amyloid β plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Over the last
decade, the presence of a sustained immune response in the brain has emerged as
a third core pathology in AD. The sustained activation of the brain's resident
macrophages (micro... hiện toàn bộ
Alzheimer's disease drug development pipeline: 2018 Tập 4 Số 1 - Trang 195-214 - 2018
Jeffrey L. Cummings, Garam Lee, Aaron Ritter, Kate Zhong
AbstractIntroductionTreatments for Alzheimer's disease (AD) are needed due to
the growing number of individuals with preclinical, prodromal, and dementia
forms of AD. Drug development for AD therapies can be examined by inspecting the
drug development pipeline as represented on
clinicaltrials.gov.MethodsClinicaltrials.gov was assessed as of January 30, 2018
to determine AD therapies represented in... hiện toàn bộ
Alzheimer's disease drug development pipeline: 2017 Tập 3 Số 3 - Trang 367-384 - 2017
Jeffrey L. Cummings, Garam Lee, Travis Mortsdorf, Aaron Ritter, Kate Zhong
AbstractIntroductionThere is an urgent need to develop new treatments for
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and to understand the drug development process for new
AD therapies.MethodsWe assessed the agents in the AD pipeline as documented in
clinicaltrials.gov for phase I, phase II, and phase III, accessed
1/5/2017.ResultsThere are 105 agents in the AD treatment development pipeline,
of which 25 agents are... hiện toàn bộ
Sedentary behavior as a risk factor for cognitive decline? A focus on the influence of glycemic control in brain health Tập 3 Số 3 - Trang 291-300 - 2017

AbstractCognitive decline leading to dementia represents a global health burden.
In the absence of targeted pharmacotherapy, lifestyle approaches remain the best
option for slowing the onset of dementia. However, older adults spend very
little time doing moderate to vigorous exercise and spend a majority of time in
sedentary behavior. Sedentary behavior has been linked to poor glycemic control
and... hiện toàn bộ
Accelerating drug development for Alzheimer's disease through the use of data standards Tập 3 - Trang 273-283 - 2017
Jon Neville, Steve Kopko, Klaus Romero, Brian Corrigan, Bob Stafford, Elizabeth LeRoy, Steve Broadbent, Martin Cisneroz, Ethan Wilson, Eric Reiman, Hugo Vanderstichele, Stephen P. Arnerić, Diane Stephenson
AbstractIntroductionThe exceedingly high rate of failed trials in Alzheimer's
disease (AD) calls for immediate attention to improve efficiencies and learning
from past, ongoing, and future trials. Accurate, highly rigorous standardized
data are at the core of meaningful scientific research. Data standards allow for
proper integration of clinical data sets and represent the essential foundation
for... hiện toàn bộ
Amyloid‐associated increases in longitudinal report of subjective cognitive complaints Tập 4 - Trang 444-449 - 2018
Rebecca E. Amariglio, Rachel F. Buckley, Elizabeth C. Mormino, Gad A. Marshall, Keith A. Johnson, Dorene M. Rentz, Reisa A. Sperling
AbstractIntroductionTo investigate whether baseline subjective cognitive
complaints (SCCs) predict longitudinal decline on neuropsychological testing and
whether SCC increases longitudinally, in the setting of high levels of amyloid
burden.MethodsTwo hundred seventy‐nine clinically normal older participants
(mean age = 73.7 ± 6.1 years) from the Harvard Aging Brain Study, a cohort of

A phase 1 clinical trial of the sigma‐2 receptor complex allosteric antagonist CT1812, a novel therapeutic candidate for Alzheimer's disease Tập 5 - Trang 20-26 - 2019
Michael Grundman, Roger Morgan, Jason D. Lickliter, Lon S. Schneider, Steven DeKosky, Nicholas J. Izzo, Robert Guttendorf, Michelle Higgin, Julie Pribyl, Kelsie Mozzoni, Hank Safferstein, Susan M. Catalano
AbstractBackgroundElayta (CT1812) is a novel allosteric antagonist of the
sigma‐2 receptor complex that prevents and displaces binding of Aβ oligomers to
neurons. By stopping a key initiating event in Alzheimer's disease, this
first‐in–class drug candidate mitigates downstream synaptotoxicity and restores
cognitive function in aged transgenic mouse models of Alzheimer's
disease.MethodsA phase 1, t... hiện toàn bộ
An 8‐week, open‐label, dose‐finding study of nimodipine for the treatment of progranulin insufficiency from GRN gene mutations Tập 3 - Trang 507-512 - 2017

AbstractIntroductionFrontotemporal lobar degeneration–causing mutations in the
progranulin (GRN) gene reduce progranulin protein (PGRN) levels, suggesting that
restoring PGRN in mutation carriers may be therapeutic. Nimodipine, a Food and
Drug Administration–approved blood‐brain barrier‐penetrant calcium channel
blocker, increased PGRN levels in PGRN‐deficient murine models. We sought to
assess sa... hiện toàn bộ
Alzheimer's disease progression and risk factors: A standardized comparison between six large data sets Tập 5 - Trang 515-523 - 2019

AbstractThere exist a large number of cohort studies that have been used to
identify genetic and biological risk factors for developing Alzheimer's disease
(AD). However, there is a disagreement between studies as to how strongly these
risk factors affect the rate of progression through diagnostic groups toward AD.
We have calculated the probability of transitioning through diagnostic groups in
