The assembly of tau into amyloid filaments is associated with more than 20 neurodegenerative diseases, collectively termed tauopathies. Electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of brain-derived tau filaments revealed that specific structures define different diseases, triggering a quest for the development of experimental model systems that replicate the structures of disease. Here, we describe 12 phosphomimetic serine/threonine-to-aspartate mutations in tau, which we term PAD12, that...

CONCLUSION: It was found that nursing interventions in the observational group, compared to the control group, significantly improved satisfaction rates and alleviate complication rates. These findings suggest that various nursing intervention programs can effectively enhance rehabilitation outcomes in older patients following fractures.

CONCLUSIONS: The total IC score and components of each domain were associated with the risk of falls and functional decline after 5 years.

CONCLUSION: Community based intergenerational project offer a promising approach to address social isolation and promote well-being in elderly individuals while also enhancing intergenerational connections and community resilience.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a neurological disorder characterized by a high mortality rate for which there is currently no definitive cure. Research has demonstrated that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) exhibit considerable potential in treating ICH. However, the advanced age of ICH patients and the necessary cell expansion before transplantation therapy could result in the senescence of ASCs, thereby compromising their viability and therapeutic efficacy. This study aims to...

CONCLUSION: This study identifies SP1 and SEPHS2 as key genes linking selenium to brain aging, providing new insights into the role of selenium in brain aging and suggesting that these genes may represent potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets for brain aging and aging-related brain disorders.
