Primary care detection of Alzheimer's disease using a self-administered digital cognitive test and blood biomarkers
After the clinical implementation of amyloid-β-targeting therapies for people with cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (AD), there is an urgent need to efficiently identify this patient population in primary care. Therefore, we created a brief and self-administered digital cognitive test battery (BioCog). Based on its sub-scores, a logistic regression model was developed in a secondary care cohort (n = 223) and then evaluated in an independent primary care cohort comprising 19...
Mice carrying the homologous human shelterin POT1-L259S mutation linked to pulmonary fibrosis show a telomerase deficiency-like phenotype with telomere shortening with increasing mouse generations
Pulmonary fibrosis is a lethal disease associated with damaging insults to the lung and with organismal aging. The presence of short and dysfunctional telomeres has been placed at the origin of this disease in a percentage of both familial and sporadic cases. Recently, a mutation in the telomere-binding protein protection of telomeres 1 in humans (hPOT1), the hPOT1 L259S mutation, was found in families with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Here, we generated a Pot1a ^(L261S) knock-in mouse...
