Congrats @DStefancova 🥳
🚨 New preprint on bioRxiv!
Pericyte loss triggers hypoperfusion, BBB dysfunction, endothelial VCAM-1/type I IFN activation, venular-like transitions & delayed white matter injury linked to human cSVD signatures.
Congrats team!

🚨 New preprint
11,000 human brain microvessels in cSVD
• Early bimodal pericyte loss
• Later endothelial activation w/ a venous-like inflammatory shift
• ↑ capillary density with disease
💡 Suggests sequential vascular pathology, not parallel

Scientists identified 49 proteins genetically linked to cerebral small vessel disease. This common co-pathology with #alzheimersdisease contributes to risk for ARIA. @wustl @UTokyo_News ow.ly/OrKw50XxE0n

Excited to share our @CurrentBiology Primer written with @AudreyChagnot in the Brain-Body Interactions special issue!
We discuss how the BBB works, what happens when it breaks down, and why this matters for brain and body health.

The first patient in Phase 1b trial for Alzheimer's disease has been dosed with the fibrin-targeting immunotherapy. I am deeply grateful to the patients, clinical centers, the team at Therini Bio, and all the scientists in my lab making the foundational discoveries on fibrin in neurological diseases and the first-in-class fibrin-targeting antibody. globenewswire.com/fr/news-re…

Fascinating new research by @adrianisaacslab reveals that enhancing levels of “healthy fats” like omega-3s in the brain could be beneficial in motor neuron disease🧠
The study offers new understanding to back up previous epidemiological studies in MND👉 buff.ly/3XeVQI4
