Tau aggregation plays a crucial role in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Developing specific techniques that can isolate pathogenic tau from brain tissue is important for understanding tauopathies and advancing targeted therapies. Here, we develop photoaffinity small molecular probes and a novel method for in situ tissue labeling and investigate their activity in interacting with tau in cells and AD patient brains. Based on the reported chemical structures of tau PET tracers, we designed and synthesized two tau-specific probes, namely, Tau-2 and Tau-4. After validation in cell, mouse model, and patient brain samples, our photolabeling results suggested that Tau-2 effectively labels soluble tau in cell and mouse models, while Tau-4 selectively binds high-molecular-weight tau aggregates in late-stage AD patient brain tissues. Proteomic analysis verified the specific isolation of pathogenic tau from AD brain samples. Collectively, these findings underscore the potential of our photoaffinity probes as powerful tools for investigating tau proteins and neurofibrillary tangles in neurodegenerative diseases.

Background: Age-related cognitive decline results in significant clinical and public health costs. Cognitive decline predisposes individuals to dementia and leads to difficulties with activities of daily living and increased hospitalizations. While a few dietary interventions have shown considerable promise at delaying cognitive decline, studies of the effects of long-term blueberry consumption on brain health among older adults have been limited and equivocal. Objective: To test the hypothesis that a 24-week intervention with blueberry powder versus placebo will improve (i) plasma biomarkers of brain health and (ii) cognitive performance in older adults. Methods: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial will be conducted in older Americans aged 65-99 years old. Sixty-seven participants will be randomly assigned to receive either blueberry powder (20 g/d-equivalent of one (1) cup of fresh blueberries) or a placebo powder (20 g/d) for 24 weeks. Participants will undergo four clinic visits (baseline and 8 weeks, 16 weeks, and 24 weeks after randomization) for cognitive assessments, blood pressure measurements, and blood sample collections. Primary outcomes will be plasma levels of neurofilament light chain (NFL) and phosphorylated tau protein (pTau-181). Secondary outcomes will be plasma levels of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA);blood pressure during visits;and cognitive function. Conclusion: Findings from this trial will answer the question whether a long-term intervention with blueberry powder can improve (i) plasma biomarkers of brain health and (ii) cognitive function in older adults.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by the accumulation of soluble amyloid-beta oligomers (A beta Os) in the brain, which disrupt synaptic function and promote cognitive decline. Here, we investigated the effects of A beta Os on excitatory and inhibitory synaptic transmission and plasticity by performing stereotaxic injections of A beta Os directly into the hippocampal CA1 region, followed by hippocampal slice isolation for electrophysiological measurements. A beta Os injections altered basal excitatory synaptic transmission, reducing field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) and impairing excitatory long-term potentiation (LTP). Additionally, A beta Os injections significantly increased basal inhibitory synaptic transmission, as evidenced by the increased amplitude of field inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (fIPSPs), but impaired the induction and maintenance of inhibitory long-term potentiation (iLTP). Accordingly, we propose that A beta Os injections induce the saturation of the GABAergic system and thus disrupt the hippocampal excitatory-inhibitory balance. These findings highlight the dual impact of A beta Os on both excitatory and inhibitory synapses, generating synaptic dysregulation and possibly worsening cognitive decline in AD. Understanding these mechanisms could provide new insights for developing therapies to restore synaptic balance and hippocampal function in AD.

Purpose: To evaluate the susceptibility profiles of regional inpatient meropenem-resistant (MEM-R) carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) isolates and their MIC values to ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA), meropenem-vaborbactam (MVB), and aztreonam-avibactam (ATM-AVI) Methods: The 2020-2022 Antimicrobial Testing Leadership and Surveillance database were analyzed. Carbapenemase-encoding genes in CPE isolates were identified using multiplex PCR and Sanger sequencing. Susceptibility breakpoints for CZA and MVB recommended by CLSI 2024 and EUCAST 2025 against Enterobacterales were applied. Results: A total of 2,318 CPE isolates (78.2% were Klebsiella pneumoniae ) were tested globally. Notable diversity in carbapenemase-encoding gene distributions was observed among CPE isolates from Africa/the Middle East (10 countries;n = 361), Asia (7 countries, excluding India and Pakistan;n = 182), Europe (17 countries;n = 1,002), and Latin America (10 countries;n = 773). Metallo- beta-lactamase-encoding genes, predominantly blaNDM-1 , were more frequently detected in CPE isolates from Africa/the Middle East (75.3%, except blaNDM-5 in Kuwait) and Asia (67%, except blaIMP-8 in Taiwan) compared to other regions. Among KPC variants, the KPC-2 enzyme was the predominant one in CPE isolates in Europe (43.4%, except for KPC-3 prevalent specifically in Italy) and in Latin America (62.1%). The susceptibility rates of all analyzed CPE isolates harboring only a single blaKPC gene to CZA and MVB were 99.4% and 93.5%, respectively, based on the CLSI 2024 susceptibility breakpoints. The MIC50/90 values of CPE isolates to ATM-AVI were 0.12/0.25 mg/L and 0.5/1 mg/L, respectively, regardless of collection region, dual carbapenemase production, or infection source. Conclusions: The trends in resistance to novel antibiotics among contemporary CPE isolates need close monitoring. (c) 2025 Elsevier Ltd and International Society of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy.

Autoimmunity has been proposed to increase Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, but evaluating the clinical connection between autoimmune disorders and AD has been difficult in diverse populations. We investigate risk relationships between 26 autoimmune disorders and AD using retrospective observational case-control and cohort study designs based on electronic health records for >300,000 individuals at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Stanford University. We discover that autoimmune disorders are associated with increased AD risk (odds ratios [ORs] 1.4-1.7) across study designs, primarily driven by endocrine, gastrointestinal, dermatologic, and musculoskeletal disorders. We also find that autoimmune disorders associate with increased AD risk in both sexes, but the AD sex disparity remains in those with autoimmune disorders: women exhibit higher AD prevalence than men. This study identifies consistent associations between autoimmune disorders and AD across study designs and two real-world clinical databases, establishing a foundation for exploring how autoimmunity may contribute to AD risk.

Background Latin American countries present major health-related inequities due to historical, cultural, and social aspects. Recent evidence highlights that factors related to social and health disparities outweigh classic demographic factors in determining healthy brain aging in these populations. However, these analyses have not been conducted with the Brazilian population, the largest and most ethnically diverse population in Latin America. Methods Here, we evaluated demographic, social, and health factors for healthy brain ageing using a machine learning model in a Brazilian population-based cohort (n=9412) and in additional cohorts from other Latin American countries, including Colombia (n=23 694), Chile (n=1301), Ecuador (n=5235), and Uruguay (n=1450). Findings In the Brazilian population and other Latin American countries, social and health disparities were more influential than demographic factors for cognition and functional ability. Uniquely in Brazil, education emerged as the primary risk factor impacting cognitive outcomes, diverging from other Latin American countries where mental health symptoms played more prominent roles. In terms of functional ability, Brazil displayed a distinct pattern, with mental health symptoms identified as the primary contributing factor. Interpretation Our findings indicate that Brazil converges with other Latin American countries to show that heterogeneous factors impacted more than demographic factors, but also showed a unique set of health factors when compared with other Latin American countries. Therefore, our study emphasises that social and health disparity factors are relevant predictors of healthy brain ageing in Latin America, but population-specific analyses are necessary to identify the specific risk profiles of each country.

PurposeThis study aimed to investigate the genetic and clinical characteristics of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) isolates carrying metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) *** total of 146 non-duplicated isolates of CRE were collected in 2022. Their ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) susceptibilities were determined using the E test. The phenotypic identification of carbapenemases was conducted using the modified carbapenem inactivation method, followed by sequencing of the five common carbapenemase genes (blaKPC, blaNDM, blaVIM, blaIMP, and blaOXA-48). Multilocus sequence typing of selected Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Enterobacter cloacae complex isolates were *** the 146 CRE isolates, 52 (35.6%) were resistant to CZA. MBL-encoding genes were detected in 46 (31.5%) of all tested CRE isolates, with 82.6% (n = 38) of them exhibiting resistance to CZA. Fourteen isolates were resistant to CZA without any detected MBL genes. The most commonly identified MBL genes were blaIMP (n = 20), followed by blaNDM (n = 19), and blaVIM (n = 5). In CZA-R, the most common definite antibiotic before the CZA E test was CZA (n = 18), followed by tigecycline (n = 13), and fluroquinolone (n = 10). The 14-day and 30-day mortality rates were 9.0% (n = 13) and 22.8% (n = 34), and were associated with intensive care unit admission at onset (P = 0.029 and P = 0.001, respectively). The sequence types of CRE isolates carrying MBLs were diverse without major *** continuous emergence of MBL gene-encoding CRE with multiple clones has led to reduced CZA susceptibilities and worse outcomes.

Background: Climate change has intensified the frequency and severity of extreme weather events, disproportionately affecting vulnerable populations, including older people for which the literature is still limited. This systematic review investigated the impact of extreme weather events on malnutrition and food security among individuals aged 60 and older. Methods: A systematic search of PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science was conducted without restrictions (October 2024), and following PRISMA guidelines. Observational studies examining older adults exposed to extreme weather events (e.g., droughts, floods, heatwaves, hurricanes) and their effects on malnutrition or food security were included. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale assessed study quality. Protocol was registered in PROSPERO (ID: CRD42024596910). Results: From 1,709 articles, six observational studies involving 265,000 participants (aged 60 years and over) were included. These studies spanned multiple geographies, with a concentration in the United States. Findings revealed a dual impact: while some studies reported protective factors, such as social support and economic stability, others highlighted increased malnutrition risk due to disrupted food supply, economic hardship, and inadequate adaptive responses. Heterogeneity in study designs, exposure definitions, and outcome measures limited comparability. Conclusion: Extreme weather events significantly impact malnutrition and food security among older adults, with outcomes influenced by socio-economic and geographical factors. Further longitudinal studies are needed to clarify causal pathways and inform targeted public health interventions to enhance resilience in aging populations. © The Author(s) 2025.
