CRISPR-based epigenetic editing of Gad1 improves synaptic inhibition and cognitive behavior in a Tauopathy mouse model by Lei Wan, Ping Zhong, Pei Li, Yong Ren, Wei Wang, Mingjun Yu, Henry Y. Feng, Zhen Yan

“…We confirmed that GABA synthesizing enzymes, GAD1 and GAD2, were significantly downregulated in prefrontal cortex (PFC) of AD human postmortem tissues. A tauopathy mouse model also had the significantly reduced expression of GABA-related genes, as well as the diminished GABAergic synaptic transmission in PFC pyramidal neurons. …”

Electrophysiology-based screening identifies neuronal HtrA serine peptidase 2 (HTRA2) as a synaptic plasticity regulator participating in tauopathy by Naizhen Zheng, Kun Li, Jing Cao, Zijie Wang, Liang Zhang, Zihao Zhao, Jiawei He, Yong Wang, Xiang Zhu, Yiqing Chen, Jian Meng, Dongdong Zhao, Mengxi Niu, Hong Luo, Xian Zhang, Hao Sun, Yun-wu Zhang

“…Moreover, we found that HTRA2 expression decreased in the brains of Alzheimer’s disease patients, frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin inclusions patients, and tauopathy model mice. Finally, we showed that lentivirus-mediated HTRA2 overexpression in the hippocampus rescued PP2B reduction, alleviated tau hyperphosphorylation, and partially attenuated synaptic plasticity and cognitive deficits in the PS19 tauopathy model mice. …”

Effect of amisulpride on the expression of serotonin receptors, neurotrophic factor BDNF and its receptors in mice with overexpression of the aggregation-prone [R406W] mutant tau p... by E. M. Kondaurova, A. A. Komarova, T. V. Ilchibaeva, A. Ya. Rodnyy, E. A. Zalivina, V. S. Naumenko

“…In these animals we examined short-term memory and the expression of genes involved in the development of tauopathy (Htr7 and Cdk5), as well as biomarkers of neurodegenerative processes – the Bdnf gene and its receptors TrkB (the Ntrk2 gene) and p75NTR (the Ngfr gene). …”

The Citron homology domain of MAP4Ks improves outcomes of traumatic brain injury by Xiaoling Zhong, Wenjiao Tai, Meng-Lu Liu, Shuaipeng Ma, Tianjin Shen, Yuhua Zou, Chun-Li Zhang

“…In this study, we showed that adeno-associated virus-delivery of the Citron homology domain of MAP4Ks effectively reduces traumatic brain injury-induced reactive gliosis, tauopathy, lesion size, and behavioral deficits. Pharmacological inhibition of MAP4Ks replicated the ameliorative effects observed with expression of the Citron homology domain. …”

Reversal of neuronal tau pathology via adiponectin receptor activation by Eric R. McGregor, Danny J. Lasky, Olivia J. Rippentrop, Josef P. Clark, Samantha Wright, Mathew V. Jones, Rozalyn M. Anderson

“…Here, we show that mitochondrial targeting via the adiponectin receptor activator AdipoRon (AR) clears neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) and rescues neuronal tauopathy-associated defects. AR reduced levels of phospho-tau and lowered NFT burden by a mechanism involving the energy-sensing kinase AMPK and the growth-sensing kinase GSK3b. …”

“… Repetitive head impacts (RHIs), common in contact sports, have raised concerns about their long-term effects on brain health, potentially leading to conditions like concussions, Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), and other neurodegenerative diseases. CTE, a progressive tauopathy, is associated with cognitive and psychological symptoms, including memory loss and depression. …”
