Alex Bateman et al.

Summary: The UniProt Knowledgebase aims to provide users with a comprehensive, high-quality set of protein sequences annotated with functional information. Updates over the past two years have increased the number of sequences to approximately 190 million, with new methods to assess proteome completeness and quality. UniProtKB has responded to the COVID-19 pandemic by expertly curating relevant entries and making them rapidly available through a dedicated portal.

Accelerated inflammatory aging in Alzheimer's disease and its relation to amyloid, tau, and cognition

Nicholas C. Cullen et al.

Summary: The study revealed that inflammatory proteins in both cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma are associated with cognitive impairment and AD pathology. The levels of inflammatory proteins varied across different stages of AD, with CSF inflammatory changes highly correlated with core AD biomarkers.

Four subgroups based on tau levels in Alzheimer's disease observed in two independent cohorts

Flora H. Duits et al.

Summary: Using Gaussian mixture modeling, four subgroups were identified based on CSF t-tau and p-tau levels in two independent cohorts, with increasingly high tau subgroups associated with faster clinical decline and higher risk of progression to Alzheimer's disease.

Different Inflammatory Signatures in Alzheimer's Disease and Frontotemporal Dementia Cerebrospinal Fluid

Gustaf Bostrom et al.

Summary: The study revealed that levels of MMP-10 were elevated in AD, MCI/AD, and FTD patients, with additional proteins increased in MCI/AD. In contrast, FTD patients showed decreased levels of 36 proteins, while AD and MCI/AD patients did not show any decrease in protein levels. This suggests distinct patterns of neuroinflammatory processes in different neurodegenerative disorders.

Changed signals of blood adenosine and cytokines are associated with parameters of sleep and/or cognition in the patients with chronic insomnia disorder

Chong-Yang Ren et al.

Summary: Patients with chronic insomnia disorder exhibit lower adenosine levels, higher ADA levels, and elevated levels of certain cytokines compared to healthy controls. Adenosine levels are negatively correlated with sleep quality index scores, while some cytokines are positively correlated with cognitive assessment scores.

Adenosine deaminase modulates metabolic remodeling and orchestrates joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis

Sai Krishna Srimadh Bhagavatham et al.

Summary: The study shows that different levels of adenosine deaminase (ADA), an arthritis-associated factor, can lead to varying cytokine levels and metabolic characteristics in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. ADA may play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of RA joints, serving as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for RA patients.

Hyperactivation of monocytes and macrophages in MCI patients contributes to the progression of Alzheimer's disease

Usma Munawara et al.

Summary: The study found distinct phenotypic and functional changes in monocyte and macrophage populations as the disease progresses. Higher free radical production was observed in the monocytes of SMC patients, while the strongest activation of peripheral monocytes was seen in the MCI group. Monocytes exhibited increased chemotaxis, free radical production, and cytokine production in response to TLR2 and TLR4 stimulation, suggesting activation of the peripheral innate immune system during disease progression.

Neuroinflammation and Alzheimer's Disease: A Machine Learning Approach to CSF Proteomics

Lorenzo Gaetani et al.

Summary: In this study, novel protein biomarkers reflecting neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease were identified using a high-throughput multiplex CSF analysis coupled with machine-learning. These biomarkers, including SIRT2, HGF, MMP-10, and CXCL5, showed high discriminatory performance in distinguishing AD patients from controls. The biological processes regulated by these proteins involve astrocyte and microglia activation, modulation of amyloid and tau misfolding, and dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier. Additional studies are needed to confirm these results and validate proximity extension assay as a technique for biomarker discovery in neurological diseases.

Interaction between Aβ and Tau in the Pathogenesis of Alzheimer's Disease

Huiqin Zhang et al.

Summary: Extracellular neuritic plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles, composed of amyloid-beta and phosphorylated tau protein respectively, are hallmark proteins of Alzheimer's disease. The interactions between these proteins have been extensively studied, with A beta accelerating tau phosphorylation, tau mediating A beta toxicity, and potential synergistic effects on microglial cells and astrocytes. Understanding these interactions may lead to new interventions against Alzheimer's disease.

Concordance of CSF measures of Alzheimer's pathology with amyloid PET status in a preclinical cohort: A comparison of Lumipulse and established immunoassays

Ashvini Keshavan et al.

Summary: The study assessed the concordance of CSF amyloid beta and tau measured on the Lumipulse platform with pre-symptomatic AD pathology on amyloid PET. Results showed that Lumipulse platform provides comparable sensitivity and specificity to established CSF immunoassays in identifying pre-symptomatic AD pathology.
