The paper identifies BCL-XL as a potential regulator of the neurovascular unit in Parkinson's disease through systematic screening of -Synuclein strain responses in pericytes.

This paper performs a meta-analysis of UBQLN2 genetic variants in ALS/FTD, finding sex-specific differences in age at onset and aggregate burden in brain tissue.

This study shows human pericytes degrade different strains of alpha-synuclein aggregates in vitro, with varying efficiency depending on the strain and origin of the pericytes.

The paper identifies a hippocampal protein aggregation signature that distinguishes pathogenic from wildtype UBQLN2 in ALS/FTD cases.

The paper examines whether blood-spinal cord barrier breakdown correlates with motor neuron loss and TDP-43 proteinopathy in ALS, finding they have distinct regional patterns.

The paper identifies cardiac glycosides as regulators of neuroinflammatory pathways in brain-barrier tissues using in vitro and ex vivo human models.
