Age‐Related White Matter Hyperintensities and Overactive Bladder: a Systematic ...
Pereira e Silva, R; Aguiar Sousa, D; Abadesso Lopes, F; Silva‐Ramos, M; Verdelho, AIntroduction: Age-related white matter hyperintensities (ARWMHs) on brain magnetic resonance imaging have been associated with lower urinary tract symptoms/dysfunction (LUTS/LUTD), namely overactive bladder (OAB) and detrusor overactivity. We aimed to systematically review existing data on the association between ARWMH and LUTS and which clinical tools have been used for this assessment. Materials and methods: ...
Decrease in APP and CP mRNA expression supports impairment of iron export in Al...
Guerreiro, C; Silva, B; Crespo, A; Marques, L; Costa, S; Timóteo, A; Marcelino, E; Maruta, C; Vilares, A; Matos, M; Couto, F; Faustino, P; Verdelho, AAlzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder of still unknown etiology and the leading cause of dementia worldwide. Besides its main neuropathological hallmarks, a dysfunctional homeostasis of transition metals has been reported to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of this disease. Dysregulation of iron (Fe) metabolism in AD has been suggested, particularly at the level of cellular iron efflux...

Genetic and biochemical markers in patients with Alzheimer's disease support a ...
Crespo, A; Silva, B; Marques, L; Marcelino, E; Maruta, C; Costa, S; Timóteo, A; Vilares, A; Couto, F; Faustino, P; Correia, AP; Verdelho, A; Porto, GAlzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly individuals, resulting from a complex interaction between environmental and genetic factors. Impaired brain iron homeostasis has been recognized as an important mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of this disease. Nevertheless, the knowledge gathered so far at the systemic level is clearly insufficient. Herein, we used an integrative ...
