Analysis of postmortem brain tissues (frontal cortex, temporal cortex, hippocampus) from male and female Hisayama residents pathologically diagnosed as having Alzheimer's disease (AD) or an AD-like disorder. Results provide insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying AD brain pathology.

(Submitter supplied) To identify molecular pathological alterations in AD brains, we performed interspecies comparative microarray analyses using RNAs prepared from postmortem human brain tissues donated for the Hisayama study and hippocampal RNAs from the triple-transgenic mouse model of AD (3xTg-AD) Three-way ANOVA of microarray data from frontal cortex, temporal cortex and hippocampus with presence/absence of AD and vascular dementia, and sex, as factors revealed that the gene expression profile is most significantly altered in the hippocampi of AD brains. more...

(Submitter supplied) Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a recognized risk factor for dementias, including AD, increasing its odds by two-fold. Because DM is potentially modifiable risk factor, a greater understanding of the mechanisms linking DM to the clinical expression of AD may provide insights into much needed dementia therapeutics. Epigenetics offers a novel approach, and previously under-investigated 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC) is now emerging as a promising measure to investigate in diabetes related conditions. more...

(Submitter supplied) Aging is the primary risk factor of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the molecular events occurring during brain aging are extremely complex and still largely unknown. For a better understanding of these age-associated modifications, animal models as close as possible to humans are needed. We thus analyzed the transcriptome of the temporal cortex of the primate Microcebus murinus using human oligonucleotide microarrays (Affymetrix). more...

Analysis of temporal cortex of young adult, old healthy, and Alzheimer’s disease (AD-like) animals. AD-like animals presented ß-amyloid plaques and cortical atrophy, which are signs of AD in humans. Results provided insight into molecular basis of physiological versus pathological brain aging.

(Submitter supplied) Information about the genes that are preferentially expressed during the course of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) could improve our understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of this common cause of cognitive impairment in older persons, provide new opportunities in the diagnosis, early detection, and tracking of this disorder, and provide novel targets for the discovery of interventions to treat and prevent this disorder. more...

(Submitter supplied) We used Illumina Human HT-12 v4 arrays to compare RNA expression of middle temporal gyrus (MTG; BA21) in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD = 97) and non-demented controls (ND = 98). A total of 938 transcripts were highly differentially expressed (adj p < 0.01; log2 Fold Change (FC) ≥ |0.500|, with 411 overexpressed and 527 underexpressed in AD. Our results correlated with expression profiling in neurons from AD and ND obtained by Laser Capture Microscopy in MTG from an independent dataset (log2 FC correlation: r = 0.504; p = 2.2e-16). more...
