The Role and Mechanism of Anti-ICOS mAb in Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis
Targeting costimulatory signalling pathways, especially inducible T-cell costimulatory (ICOS)-ICOS ligand(ICOSL) co-stimulatory signal, has been widely used as a therapeutic target in autoimmune diseases. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease in the central nervous system. At present, few studies are addressing the role of the ICOS-ICOSL co-stimulatory pathway in MS. We aimed to explore the role of anti-ICOS mAb in the immune response...
From hormones to neurodegeneration: how FSH drives Alzheimer's disease
The role and function of follicle-stimulating hormone in the gonads have been extremely studied. However, recent research has begun to explore the relationship between elevated follicle-stimulating hormone levels and the prevalence of extragonadal disorders, particularly in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. These disorders include endometrial cancer, osteoporosis, obesity, and atherosclerosis. This review provides new insights into the relationship between follicle-stimulating hormone and...
CITA GO-ON study. A community based multidomain lifestyle intervention to prevent cognitive decline. Protocol design and recruitment process
INTRODUCTION: Growing research suggests that dementia is a complex disorder with multiple risk factors and causes. The Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability (FINGER) demonstrated that lifestyle interventions could confer cognitive benefits. Inspired by this, the GOIZ-ZAINDU (GZ) feasibility study adapted the FINGER approach to the Basque context. Building upon the GZ study, the CITA GO-ON trial aims to enhance and expand the evidence supporting...
