Multifunctional Radical Quenchers for Mitochondrial Diseases
Mitochondrial diseases are a group of disorders associated with dysfunctional mitochondria, often caused by genetic mutations to mitochondrial DNA. Mitochondrial defects are damaging, particularly to tissues with high energy demands such as neural and muscle tissues. Energy effecting defects have been implicated in forms of movement disorders, cardiomyopathy,...

2019-231: Radiotracer for Synaptic Imaging
UCLA researchers in the Department of Neurology have synthesized a novel radiotracer that selectively identifies functional synapses for monitoring of synaptic loss in Alzheimer’s patients. BACKGROUND: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder that cannot be prevented, cured or slowed. It affects more than 17...
