Abstract Aggregation prone molecules, such as tau, form both historically well characterized fibrillar deposits (neurofibrillary tangles) and recently identified phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) extract species called proteopathic seeds. Both can cause normal endogenous tau to undergo templated misfolding. The relationship of these seeds the fibrils that define tau-related diseases is unknown. We aqueous extractable sarkosyl insoluble derived from human Alzheimer brain using mass spectrometry...

SIGNIFICANCE Modern highly oxygen-permeable nonfenestrated scleral lenses induce approximately 1 to 2% corneal edema after short periods of lens wear in healthy individuals. This study investigated the magnitude and regional variation lens-induced central penetrating keratoplasty. PURPOSE The purpose this was examine a period post–penetrating keratoplasty eyes control group with corneas. METHODS Nine (nine participants; mean age, 32 years) were fitted (Dk 100 × 10 −11 cm 3 O 2 (cm)/[(s) (cm...

Abstract Purpose Visual rehabilitation following penetrating keratoplasty is the primary indication for approximately 15% of all scleral lens fittings. Since corneal biomechanics are altered keratoplasty, aim this study was to quantify changes in anterior optics short‐term wear eyes with grafts. Methods Scheimpflug images were obtained before and after a period (mean 6.3 ± 1.4 h), from that had previously undergone (10 nine participants, mean age 31 9 years). Corneal power thickness data...

Abstract Background Clinical studies have long observed that neurodegenerative disorders display a range of symptoms and pathological features and, in some cases, overlap, suggesting these diseases exist on spectrum. Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), synucleinopathy, is prominent example, where symptomatic similarities tauopathy, Alzheimer’s disease, are observed. Although tau pathology has been DLB, the interplay between α-synuclein poorly understood at molecular level. Methods Quantitative...
