A study at Lund University reveals that traumatic brain injury alters the small vessels in the brain, resulting in an accumulation of amyloid beta — a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. The findings suggest that vascular dysfunction could be an early driver in neurodegenerative disorders rather than being caused by neuronal damage. The study is published in Acta Neuropathologica. An increased risk o

This year, MultiPark has the pleasure of welcoming two new research groups. The Mackenzie Lab aims to decode the neurobiological underpinnings of emotion through experimental studies in animal models. Jacob Vogel’s team uses AI to analyze clinical data for improved understanding as well as patient-tailored diagnosis and care of neurodegenerative disease patients. Say hello to Åsa Mackenzie and Jac

What role does an inflammatory protein have in disease development? Which neuronal circuits cause different symptoms? How may diabetes affect Parkinson’s disease? Can motor signs be identifies early in individuals at risk for the disease? And how should patients in very advanced disease stages be treated to maintain their quality of life? These questions may soon have answers thanks to several ong

Researchers at Lund University and Washington University have identified a blood marker that reflects the amount of Alzheimer’s pathology in the brain. This discovery may play a key role in determining who is most likely to benefit from the new Alzheimer’s drugs. In brief:A newly discovered blood marker, MTBR-tau243, can reveal how much Alzheimer’s disease pathology is present in the brain. The hi

A simpler method of analysing blood samples for Alzheimer’s disease has been tested in a large multicentre study, led by Lund University in Sweden. “This is a major step in bringing simple blood tests for Alzheimer’s disease into the healthcare system globally,” say the researchers behind the study. In brief:The blood-based marker (P-tau217) may start to change several years before the onset of Al

Meet our scientist Gesine Paul-Visse to learn what happens at the interface where the brain and the body meet: the blood-brain barrier. Here, a very specialized cell, the pericyte, protects the brain and responds strongly to disease. Gesine Paul-Visse leads Translational Neurology, one of MultiPark’s research groups. As both a neurologist and a researcher, she has focused on neurodegeneration for

Researchers at MultiPark have uncovered in mice how the protein TDP-43, known for its role in several neurodegenerative diseases, disrupts the hypothalamus, the brain’s key center for metabolic control. Their study sheds new light on the role of TDP-43 in metabolic and psychiatric symptoms shared across frontotemporal dementia, Huntington’s disease, and ALS – findings that could support the develo

An experimental study from Lund University reveals for the first time that different Parkinson’s medications affect brain activity in distinct ways. This could explain why some patients develop impulsive and compulsive behaviors as a result of their treatment. The findings have been published in NPJ Parkinson’s Disease. Upon receiving treatment for their motor symptoms, many patients with Parkinso
