    Abstract As we identify the loci involved in late onset neurodegenerative disease, we are finding that the majority of them are involved in damage response processes. In this short review, I propose that it is partly a failure in these damage response processes which underlie late onset disease and that the resultant pathology is a marker of the type of damage response which has failed: microglial clearance of damaged neuronal membranes in Alzheimer's disease (AD), ubiquitin proteasome clearance in the tauopathies, and lysosomal clearance in Parkinson's disease (PD). In this review, I outline this relationship. This article is not intended as a comprehensive review of the cell biology of any of these disorders but rather a summary of the evidence that the genetics and pathology of these disorders appear to point, in each case, to the removal of misfolded proteins as a critical process in disease pathogenesis.

    Abstract As the size of genome-wide association studies increase, the number of associated trait loci identified inevitably increase. One welcomes this if it allows the better delineation of the pathways to disease and increases the accuracy of genetic prediction of disease risk through polygenic risk score analysis. However, there are several problems in the continuing increase in the genome-wide analysis of 'Alzheimer's disease'. In this review, we have systematically assessed the history of Alzheimer's disease genome-wide association studies, including their sample sizes, age and selection/assessment criteria of cases and controls and heritability explained by these disease genome-wide association studies. We observe that nearly all earlier disease genome-wide association studies are now part of all current disease genome-wide association studies. In addition, the latest disease genome-wide association studies include (i) only a small fraction (∼10%) of clinically screened controls, substituting for them population-based samples which are systematically younger than cases, and (ii) around 50% of Alzheimer's disease cases are in fact 'proxy dementia cases'. As a consequence, the more genes the field finds, the less the heritability they explain. We highlight potential caveats this situation creates and discuss some of the consequences occurring when translating the newest Alzheimer's disease genome-wide association study results into basic research and/or clinical practice.

    Abstract The novel feature of the method of battery management under development and testing is that routine balancing of the cells is eliminated throughout the service life of the battery pack. This requires preparation of the battery cells and configuration of the rigs in such a way as to ensure that the cells are accurately balanced on assembly and that thereafter there is no cell-to-cell variation in charge current or load at any time, measured to a low microamp level. In addition, the method requires a special charge control algorithm which was devised in order to accommodate cell-to-cell variations in capacity and dynamic response. Comprehensive experimental testing of this method, which is fully described in the associated paper (Hardy et al., 2023), required the development of hardware and software which would combine the necessary functions of a battery test rig and a battery management system capable of carrying out the special method of charge control described below. These included:•The automated control of contactors, loads and chargers to perform multiple charge/discharge cycles to predetermined patterns of current and maximum and minimum cell voltages.•Monitoring of cell voltages, current and temperature and the provision of test and diagnostic data.•Performing the safety functions of a Battery Management System to ensure that no cell was permitted to exceed limitations of current, voltage or temperature. The hardware and software were developed through three phases of testing with the operational principles (but not all the hardware and software elements) carrying over from one phase to the next.

    Abstract Alzheimer's disease is the most common neurological disease worldwide. Unfortunately, there are currently no effective treatment methods nor early detection methods. Furthermore, the disease underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Global bulk gene expression profiling suggested that the disease is governed by diverse transcriptional regulatory networks. Thus, to identify distinct transcriptional networks impacted into distinct neuronal populations in Alzheimer, we surveyed gene expression differences in over 25,000 single-nuclei collected from the brains of two Alzheimer's in disease patients in Braak stage I and II and age- and gender-matched controls hippocampal brain samples. APOE status was not measured for this study samples (as well as CERAD and THAL scores). Our bioinformatic analysis identified discrete glial, immune, neuronal and vascular cell populations spanning Alzheimer's disease and controls. Astrocytes and microglia displayed the greatest transcriptomic impacts, with the induction of both shared and distinct gene programs.
