Bart De Strooper presented at the Copenhagen AD/PD-conference an excellent sketch of the three main inflection points in the pathophysiological evolution of Alzheimer's disease, https://www.alzforum.org/news/conference-coverage/big-picture-three-inflection-points-mark-amyloid-cascade
My own transition from amyloid plagues to p-tau and tangles was retarded by a four years' anti-amyloid therapy in a clinical reaearch project during 2017-22 (aducanumab). Sadly, the most probable explanation for my rapidly worsening cognitive problems may indeed be the tau-tangles, which I somehow avoided earlier. I know there are experimental therapies around somewhere for those gremlins too, but sadly not within my own reach. With respect to my AD, I'm afraid, it's "too late, my friend".
I encourage anybody with a slowly lethal disease to keep mentally in touch with it as long as you can. That's what we human beings were made for. 🤗

News in #Alzheimer's diagnosis!
#FDA cleared the Lumipulse G pTau217/ß-Amyloid 1-42 Plasma Ratio, a blood test that aids in detecting #amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer's.
➡️ Less invasive & reduces reliance on PET scans and increases accessibility.
The test measures two proteins in blood plasma and calculates their ratio, correlating to the presence or absence of amyloid plaques.
Has a high accuracy rate ➡️ offers hope for earlier and easier diagnosis. -

Experimenting with #ThT stain on #spider webs to see if it successfully bonds to the beta chain #fibrin / #amyloid like components. I've applied the stain and naturally under 460nm webs fluoresce the expected green. I'm waiting for the sample to completely dry before differentiating with alcohol and then using a water based mount to finally disassociate the unbounded stain from the webs and other artefacts. All being so, we might be left with ThT stained #spidroins #science #biology #microscopy

... and counting. 14 comments thus far, one even from a fellow-guinea-pig with awful experiences. I may have benefited from my own participation (EMERGE, high dose) with few adverse effects, and in any case the general discussion is exciting.

An interesting open expert question regarding the approval of Alzheimer immuno-therapies on the basis of amyloid-removal alone, https://www.alzforum.org/news/research-news/it-time-approve-drugs-based-amyloid-removal
The question is framed with Aisen et.al's open-access article in A & D Perspectives, https://alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/alz.14342
The answers may turn out to be the most interesting part, at least with respect to staunch "trenchlines", though both articles contain lots of concise up-to-date information.
My own interest stems in part from first-hand experience as a guinea-pig in one of those therapies during 2017-22.

Secondary nucleation is increasing recognized as a dominant process in protein aggregation, and in particular also for pathogenic (disease causing) proteins. Still, many questions remain about how this process works, and what implications it has for pathogenic mechanisms. Here we show the unique power of HS-AFM to actually visualize this process directly. Check it out!

related, from 2012:
Serum albumin prevents protein aggregation and amyloid formation and retains chaperone-like activity in the presence of physiological ligands
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22549788/"Although serum albumin has an established function as a transport protein, evidence is emerging that serum albumin may also have a role as a molecular chaperone. Using established techniques to characterize chaperone interactions, this study demonstrates that bovine serum albumin: 1) preferentially binds stressed over unstressed client proteins; 2) forms stable, soluble, high molecular weight complexes with stressed client proteins; 3) reduces the aggregation of client proteins when it is present at physiological levels; and 4) inhibits amyloid formation by both WT and L55P transthyretin. Although the antiaggregatory effect of serum albumin is maintained in the presence of physiological levels of Ca(2+) and Cu(2+), the presence of free fatty acids significantly alters this activity: stabilizing serum albumin at normal levels but diminishing chaperone-like activity at high concentrations. Moreover, here it is shown that depletion of albumin from human plasma leads to a significant increase in aggregation under physiologically relevant heat and shear stresses. This study demonstrates that serum albumin possesses chaperone-like properties and that this activity is maintained under a number of physiologically relevant conditions."

@CStamp @DemocracyMattersALot This will be important for many people already dealing with memory issues or with family members showing possible signs of #dementia, however it is still limited by lack of any real treatment options. The closing paragraph says, “For people without memory loss who are worried about genetic or familial #Alzheimers risk, blood tests are not yet recommended. #Amyloid buildup can begin decades before symptoms appear, and no preventive treatments are currently available apart from general guidelines about healthy eating and living.”

A long-awaited AlzForum's take on the news that ApoE4 homozygotism means in fact an AD pathology (though not necessarily dementia before death), https://www.alzforum.org/news/research-news/do-two-apoe4-alleles-always-mean-alzheimers
The comments-section gives a glimpse of some of the trenchlines regarding the treatment of dementia, but I guess the prevention-camp has only just been strirred up from their Sleeping Beauty's slumber.
I, as an example, still have only a 1 % measured risk of acquiring AD, according to some widely used screens, and no "preventable risk factors" except maybe age. Too bad, my genetic inheritance seems to have been enough to skew the Amyloid-Beta balance early on. Luckily, I was recruited to the aducanumab-study for four years (a precursor of lecanemab with more severe side-effects), and probably got some more years to be able to think things like these.

Honored to keep company with #neurologist, #DanielGibbs's #book about his own experience of #dementia. The tattoo in the title is the #brain bleed (aka #ARIA) that occurred while in #clinicaltrials related to anti-#amyloid drugs. He has no regrets & would do it all over again if it might advance brain science & help in the effort to #ENDALZ.
If you have read either my #memoir or his, please consider reviewing them on #amazon. In different ways, we both aim to inform readers & undercut #stigma.
