Alzheimer's disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are the most common forms of globally. AD is characterized by accumulation amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques hyperphosphorylated tau in brain, leading to progressive memory loss cognitive decline, significantly impairing daily life. In contrast, FTD marked selective degeneration frontal and/or temporal lobes, typically resulting profound changes personality social behavior, speech disorders, psychiatric symptoms. Numerous studies have found microRNAs (miRNAs)-small, non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally-to be dysregulated FTD. As a result, miRNAs emerged as promising novel biomarkers for these diseases. This review examines current understanding FTD, emphasizing their potential accessible, noninvasive diagnosing prevalent neurodegenerative disorders.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as an attractive liquid biopsy approach in the diagnosis and prognosis of multiple diseases disorders. The feasibility enriching specific subpopulations EVs from biofluids based on their unique surface markers has opened novel opportunities to gain molecular insight various tissues organs, including brain. Over past decade, bodily fluids been extensively studied for biomarkers associated with neurological disorders, such Alzheimer9s disease, Parkinson9s schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depressive substance use human immunodeficiency virus–associated neurocognitive cancer/treatment-induced neurodegeneration. These studies focused isolation cargo characterization either total or brain cells, neuron-, astrocyte-, microglia-, oligodendrocyte-, pericyte-, endothelial-derived achieve early predict treatment intervention outcomes. findings these demonstrated that could serve a repetitive less invasive source valuable information supplementing existing costly neuroimaging techniques relatively measures, like lumbar puncture. However, initial excitement surrounding blood-based brain-related tempered by challenges, lack central nervous system specificity EV markers, lengthy protocols, absence standardized procedures biological sample collection, isolation, characterization.

Abstract Gut microbiome dysbiosis is a major contributing factor to several pathological conditions. However, the mechanistic understanding of communication between gut microbiota and extra‐intestinal organs remains largely elusive. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), secreted by almost every form life, including bacteria, could play critical role in this inter‐kingdom crosstalk are focus present study. Here, we novel approach for isolating lipopolysaccharide (LPS)+ bacterial extracellular (bEV LPS ) from complex biological samples, faeces, plasma liver lean diet‐induced obese (DIO) mice. bEV were extensively characterised using nanoparticle tracking analyses, immunogold labelling coupled with transmission electron microscopy, flow cytometry, super‐resolution microscopy 16S sequencing.

Abstract Brain‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) play an active role in Alzheimer's disease (AD), relaying important physiological information about their host tissues. The internal cargo of EVs is protected from degradation, making attractive AD biomarkers. However, it unclear how circulating relate to isolated disease‐vulnerable brain regions. We developed a novel method for collecting the hippocampal interstitial fluid (ISF) live mice. (EV ISF ) were via ultracentrifugation and characterized by nanoparticle tracking analysis, immunogold labelling, flow cytometry. Mass spectrometry proteomic analyses performed on EV cargo. 40–150 nm size expressed CD63, CD9, CD81. Using model cerebral amyloidosis (e.g., APPswe , PSEN1dE9 mice), we found protein concentration increased but diversity decreased with Aβ deposition. Genotype, age, deposition modulated proteostasis‐ immunometabolic‐related pathways. Changes microglial proteome sexually dimorphic associated differential response plaque microglia. that female APP/PS1 mice have more amyloid plaques, less microglia, robust‐ diverse‐ proteome. Thus, vivo microdialysis technique offers unique opportunity explore AD.

Abstract Background Accumulation of amyloid beta, tau hyperphosphorylation, and microglia activation are the three highly acknowledged pathological factors Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, oligodendrocytes (OLs) were also widely investigated in pathogenesis treatment for AD. Aims We aimed to update regulatory targets differentiation maturation OLs, emphasized key role OLs occurrence Methods This review first concluded OL with AD pathogenesis, then advanced based on both clinic basic experiments. Later, we extensively discussed possible application current progress diagnosis this complex disease. Results Molecules involving OLs’ or maturation, including various transcriptional factors, cholesterol homeostasis regulators, microRNAs could participate Clinical data point towards impairment patients. Basic research further supports central regulation pathologies. Additionally, classic drugs, donepezil, edaravone, fluoxetine, clemastine demonstrate their potential remedying models, new therapeutics from perspective is constantly being developed. Conclusions believe that dysfunction one important Factors regulating might be biomarkers early agents stimulating warrant development anti‐AD drugs.

Abstract Accurate differential diagnosis among various dementias is crucial for effective treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The study began with searching novel blood-based neuronal extracellular vesicles (EVs) that are more enriched in the brain regions vulnerable to AD development and progression. With extensive proteomic profiling, GABRD GPR162 were identified as regionally plasma EVs markers. performance GPR162, along molecule pTau217, was tested using self-developed optimized nanoflow cytometry-based technology, which not only detected positive ratio but also concurrently presented corresponding particle size EVs, discovery (n = 310) validation 213) cohorts. Plasma + - or -carrying pTau217-EVs significantly reduced compared healthy control (HC). Additionally, distribution different between non-AD dementia (NAD). An integrative model, combining age, number pTau217-EVs, accurately sensitively discriminated from HC [discovery cohort, area under curve (AUC) 0.96; AUC 0.93] effectively differentiated NAD (discovery 0.91; 0.90). This showed carrying pTau217 may serve a robust diagnostic tool both clinical practice trials AD.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as novel blood-based biomarkers for various pathologies. The development of methods to enrich cell-specific EVs from biofluids has enabled us monitor difficult-to-access organs, such the brain, in real time without disrupting their function, thus serving liquid biopsy. Burgeoning evidence indicates that contents neuron-derived (NDEs) blood reveal dynamic alterations occur during neurodegenerative pathogenesis, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), reflecting a disease-specific molecular signature. Among these AD-specific changes is brain insulin-signaling dysregulation, which cannot be assessed clinically living patient and remains an unexplained co-occurrence AD pathogenesis. This review focused on delineating how NDEs may begin close gap between identifying associated with insulin dysregulation reliably patients its connection AD. approach could lead identification early less-invasive diagnostic HIGHLIGHTS: Neuron-derived extracellular isolated peripheral blood. reflect signature (AD).
