Study explores how traumatic brain injury (TBI) may be linked to Alzheimer’s disease

Each year, about 2.5 million people suffer from traumatic brain injuries (TBI), which often increases their risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease later in life. Researchers led by The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and College of Medicine used mouse models and human post-mortem brain tissue to study the molecular underpinnings that may increase the […]

Researchers are closing in on a mouse model for late-onset Alzheimer’s

Mice don’t get Alzheimer’s — and while that’s good news for mice, it’s a big problem for biomedical researchers seeking to understand the disease and test new treatments. Now, researchers at The Jackson Laboratory are working to create the first strain of mice that’s genetically susceptible to late-onset Alzheimer’s, with potentially transformative implications for dementia […]

Scientists discover links between Alzheimer’s disease and gut microbiota

Researchers have discovered the link between the gut microbiota and Alzheimer’s disease. For the first time, researchers have found that Alzheimer’s symptoms can be transferred to a healthy young organism via the gut microbiota, confirming its role in the disease. The research was led by Professor Yvonne Nolan, APC Microbiome Ireland, a world leading SFI […]

Scientists recreate mouse from gene older than animal life

Published in Nature Communications, an international team of researchers has achieved an unprecedented milestone: the creation of mouse stem cells capable of generating a fully developed mouse using genetic tools from a unicellular organism, with which we share a common ancestor that predates animals. This breakthrough reshapes our understanding of the genetic origins of stem […]

VU Researchers Publish Study on the Mechanism of CRISPR-Cas “Protein Scissors” in Molecular Cell

CRISPR-Cas systems help to protect bacteria from viruses. Several different types of CRISPR-Cas defense systems are found in bacteria, which differ in their composition and functions. Among them, the most studied proteins today are Cas9 and Cas12, also known as DNA or gene ‘scissors’, which have revolutionized the field of genome editing, enabling scientists to […]

Visualizing ER-phagy and ER architecture in vivo

ER-phagy is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis. However, significant gaps persist in our understanding of how ER-phagy and the ER network vary across cell subtypes, tissues, and organs. Furthermore, the pathophysiological relevance of ER-phagy remains poorly elucidated. Addressing these questions requires developing quantifiable methods to visualize ER-phagy and ER architecture in […]
