Mesenchymal stem cells-conditioned medium (MSC-CM) provides a promising cell-free therapy for Alzheimer's disease (AD) mainly due to the paracrine of MSCs, but the precise mechanisms remain unclear. Studies suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction precedes the accumulation of amyloid-β plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, and involves in the onset and development of AD.

In the present study, we evaluated the protective effects and explored the related-mitochondrial mechanisms of human umbilical cord derived MSC-CM (hucMSC-CM) in an AD model in vitro.

To this end, an AD cellular model was firstly established by okadaic acid (OA)-treated SH-SY5Y cells, and then treated by hucMSC-CM to assess the oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, apoptosis, AD-related genes, and signaling pathways.

hucMSC-CM significantly deceased tau phosphorylated at Thr181 (p181-tau) level, which was increased in AD. hucMSC-CM also alleviated intracellular and mitochondrial oxidative stress in OA-treated SH-SY5Y cells. In addition, hucMSC-CM suppressed apoptosis and improved mitochondrial function in OA-treated SH-SY5Y cells. Flow cytometric analysis indicated that hucMSC-CM exerted the protective effects relying on or partly extracellular vesicle (EV) mitochondrial transfer from hucMSCs to OA-treated SH-SY5Y cells. AT7519 Moreover, RNA sequencing data further demonstrated that hucMSC-CM regulated many AD-related genes, signaling pathways and mitochondrial function.

These results indicated that MSC-CM or MSC-EVs containing abundant mitochondria may provide a novel potential therapeutic approach for AD.

Brain metal homeostasis is essential for brain health, and deregulation can result in oxidative stress on the brain parenchyma.

Our objective in this study was to focus on two hemorrhagic MRI manifestations of small vessel disease [cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and cortical superficial siderosis (cSS)] and associations with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) iron levels. In addition, we aimed to analyze CSF biomarkers for dementia and associations with CSF metal levels.

This is a cross-sectional study of 196 patients who underwent memory clinic investigation, including brain MRI. CSF was collected and analyzed for metals, amyloid-β (Aβ) 42, total tau (T-tau), and phosphorylated tau (P-tau), and CSF/serum albumin ratios. Statistical analyses were performed using generalized linear models.

No significant difference was found between CSF metal levels across diagnostic groups. Higher iron and copper levels were associated with higher CSF levels of Aβ42, T-tau, P-tau, and CSF/serum albumin ratios (p < 0.05). Zinc was associated with higher CSF/serum albumin ratios. There was no significant association between CMBs or cSS and CSF iron levels. An increase in CSF iron with the number of CMBs was seen in APOEɛ4 carriers.

CSF iron levels are elevated with cerebral microbleeds in APOEɛ4 carriers, with no other association seen with hemorrhagic markers of small vessel disease. The association of elevated CSF iron and copper with tau could represent findings of increased neurodegeneration in these patients.

A significant proportion of people with dementia live alone, but little is known about their specific needs.

To understand the profile of people living alone with mild-to-moderate dementia in the UK and identify any systematic differences associated with living situation.

We analyzed cross-sectional data from 1,541 people with mild-to-moderate dementia and 1,277 caregivers participating in the IDEAL cohort at the first wave of assessment.

There were 1,256 (81.5%) people with dementia living with others and 285 (18.5%) living alone, of whom 51 (3% of whole sample) reported little or no informal support. There were relatively few differences associated with living situation and odds ratios were generally small. People living alone were older on average, and more likely to be female, than those living with others. Those living alone were more likely to have higher cognitive ability and self-reported functional ability, and more social contact with those from other households. They were also lonelier, expressed less satisfaction with life, and used home care services and equipment more. There were no differences in symptoms, mood, quality of life, or well-being.

The findings support the view that it is possible to 'live well' with mild-to-moderate dementia while living alone, given appropriate support, including home care and equipment. Nevertheless, it is important to consider how those living alone may be supported to have a more satisfactory experience, and how health and social care services can best respond to their needs.

Dementia is a persistent, progressive state of cognitive decline against which pharmacological intervention has a modest efficacy, reducing behavioral but not cognitive symptoms. Therefore, different non-pharmacological therapies have been developed; the most scientifically recognized are cognitive therapies that have improved cognitive function and daily life activities.

To evaluate the effectiveness of a multicomponent cognitive stimulation therapy (SADEM) on cognitive and behavioral function and daily life activities in patients with mild stage dementia.

Controlled clinical trial with pre- and post-intervention (12 months) and follow-up (24 months after) evaluations. Participants (67) diagnosed with mild dementia were randomly assigned to intervention group (n = 39) or control group (n = 28). The intervention took place throughout one year and consisted of two weekly 90-minute sessions and one more a year after a monthly follow-up. Instruments were used to evaluate outcomes in cognitive, behavioral, and affective domains.
