    High-throughput tracking enables systematic phenotyping and drug repurposing in C. elegans disease models

    Thomas J O'Brien, Ida L Barlow ... André EX Brown
    High-throughput animal tracking and quantitative behaviour analysis detects diverse phenotypes in genetic disease models at a scale that makes drug screens possible.

    Cystatin F (Cst7) drives sex-dependent changes in microglia in an amyloid-driven model of Alzheimer’s disease

    Michael JD Daniels, Lucas Lefevre ... Barry W McColl
    Cst7, a gene coding for protein cystatin F, is expressed by microglia in neurodegenerative disease models and mediates sex-dependent effects on microglial endolysosomal function and disease pathology.

    Base editing of Ptbp1 in neurons alleviates symptoms in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease

    Desiree Böck, Maria Wilhelm ... Gerald Schwank
    Downregulation of PTBP1 in neurons, but not astrocytes, alleviates motor symptoms in a Parkinson’s disease mouse model by inducing dopaminergic marker expression in striatal neurons and increasing striatal dopamine levels.

    Adult stem cell-derived complete lung organoid models emulate lung disease in COVID-19

    Courtney Tindle, MacKenzie Fuller ... Soumita Das
    An integrated stem cell-based disease modeling and computational approach demonstrates how proximal airway epithelium is critical for SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and distal alveolar cells are critical for simulating the host responses.

    Assessment of neurovascular coupling and cortical spreading depression in mixed mouse models of atherosclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease

    Osman Shabir, Ben Pendry ... Jason Berwick
    Mice modelling atherosclerosis show neurovascular breakdown in the cortex compared to healthy controls, and inducing atherosclerosis in mice modelling Alzheimer's disease increases the number of amyloid plaques in the hippocampus.

    A novel and accurate full-length HTT mouse model for Huntington’s disease

    Sushila A Shenoy, Sushuang Zheng ... Chenjian Li
    A novel BAC226Q mouse recapitulating robust, age-dependent, progressive Huntington’s disease (HD)-like phenotypes will be a valuable tool for studying disease mechanisms, identifying biomarkers, and testing gene-targeting therapeutic approaches for HD.

    Molecular basis of neurodegeneration in a mouse model of Polr3-related disease

    Robyn D Moir, Emilio Merheb ... Ian M Willis
    A global reduction in tRNA differentially affects brain regions and tissues in a mouse model of Polr3-related disease leading to activation of integrated stress and innate immune responses and neurodegeneration.

    Integrated transcriptomic and neuroimaging brain model decodes biological mechanisms in aging and Alzheimer’s disease

    Quadri Adewale, Ahmed F Khan ... Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative
    Identification of causal genes and their effects on other biological determinants untangles the complexities of aging and Alzheimer's and can facilitate drug discovery for sustaining healthy aging and treating Alzheimer's.

    Development, calibration, and validation of a novel human ventricular myocyte model in health, disease, and drug block

    Jakub Tomek, Alfonso Bueno-Orovio ... Blanca Rodriguez
    A computer model of human cardiomyocyte was produced and validated on independent datasets, overcoming shortcomings of its predecessors, also yielding broadly relevant insights and results on major ionic currents.

    The LRRK2 G2019S mutation alters astrocyte-to-neuron communication via extracellular vesicles and induces neuron atrophy in a human iPSC-derived model of Parkinson’s disease

    Aurelie de Rus Jacquet, Jenna L Tancredi ... Erin K O'Shea
    Extracellular vesicles are proposed as novel, non-cell-autonomous mediators of neuronal atrophy in Parkinson's disease.
