Novel APOE Mutation in a Moroccan Subject Suffering from Alzheimer Disease: A Case Study and Exploration of Pathogenic Implication
In this study, we report a novel pathogenic mutation, Arg160Leu, in APOE that was identified in a Moroccan patient. The magnetic resonance imaging of this 67-year-old woman revealed hippocampal shrinkage, and the results of her cognition testing revealed that she is suffering from severe AD. The current study may increase awareness of the genetic risk factors for AD caused by APOE4 mutations.PMID:38015425 | DOI:10.1097/WAD.0000000000000590 (Source: Alzheimer Disease and Associated Disorders)

Regional White Matter Hyperintensities Relate to Specific Cognitive Abilities in Older Adults Without Dementia
DISCUSSION: Results show that greater regional WMH volume relates to poorer cognitive functioning-even among those with normal cognition. Together with results from previous studies, our findings raise the possibility that WMH may be a useful therapeutic target and/or important effect modifier in treatment or prevention dementia trials.PMID:38015423 | PMC:PMC10664788 | DOI:10.1097/WAD.0000000000000585 (Source: Alzheimer Disease and Associated Disorders)

Proteomic Analysis Reveals Potential Exosomal Biomarkers in Patients With Sporadic Alzheimer Disease
CONCLUSIONS: These findings lend further support for exosomal changes in neurodegenerative disorders, and particularly in sAD. Further proteomic research could decisively advance our knowledge of sAD pathophysiology as much as it could foster the development of clinically meaningful biomarkers.PMID:38015424 | DOI:10.1097/WAD.0000000000000589 (Source: Alzheimer Disease and Associated Disorders)

A Longitudinal Evaluation of the Pattern of Social Cognition Impairment in Brazilians With Alzheimer's Disease
CONCLUSION: The stable pattern in SC functioning over 12 months in AD suggests that this neurocognitive domain may be influenced more by emotional processing than by cognitive impairment. In addition, the SC predictors showed that the investigation of different points of view enables a more global understanding, contributing to better and more targeted treatment for the patient.PMID:37916936 | DOI:10.1097/WAD.0000000000000588 (Source: Alzheimer Disease and Associated Disorders)
