Sep. 12, 2023 Scientists have opened a new view into the workings of the brain and central nervous system, detecting a diverse set of important molecules known as lipoproteins. The most common protein on the ...
Sep. 6, 2023 Not only does a lack of sleep make you feel awful, research has shown it impairs the brain. What's more, sleep loss over long periods can even increase risk for Alzheimer's and other ...
Sep. 6, 2023 A groundbreaking study has shed new light on the genetic underpinnings of Alzheimer's ...
Sep. 6, 2023 Neuroscientists created the first non-human primate model of hereditary Alzheimer's in marmosets to accelerate the pace of drug discovery and rebuild the foundation for future translational ...
Sep. 5, 2023 Researchers have discovered a new avenue of cell death in Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. The study reveals for the first time that a form of cell death known as ferroptosis -- caused ...
Aug. 31, 2023 A new article examines the use of monoclonal antibody therapies for treating Alzheimer disease and alerts physicians to be on the lookout for a potential side effect: amyloid-related imaging ...
Aug. 31, 2023 A new blood test called p-tau217 shows promise as an Alzheimer's disease biomarker, and when used in a two-step workflow very high accuracy to either identify or exclude brain amyloidosis, the ...
Aug. 30, 2023 A massive study of medical and genetic data shows that people with a particular version of a gene involved in immune response had a lower risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's ...
Aug. 30, 2023 Researchers have developed a blood test that detects Parkinson's disease, potentially establishing a way to help diagnose the condition before nervous system damage worsens. A new blood-based ...
Aug. 30, 2023 A new study further illustrates that when it comes to risk of Alzheimer's disease, even genetically determined forms of the disease, genetics is only one piece of the puzzle. Researchers ...
Aug. 30, 2023 Scientists have made a 'paradigm shifting' discovery on the mechanisms required for learning and memory that could lead to new therapies for Alzheimer's disease and potentially Down ...
Aug. 29, 2023 Damage associated with Alzheimer's disease begins within hours after a concussion according to results from research that uses a 'mini-brain' lab on a chip ...
Aug. 29, 2023 A potential new Alzheimer's drug represses the harmful inflammatory response of the brain's immune cells, reducing disease pathology, preserving neurons and improving cognition in ...
Aug. 28, 2023 A new study focused on neurobehavioral effects and inflammatory response to exposure to microplastics, as well as the accumulation of microplastics in tissues, including the brain. The research team ...
Aug. 25, 2023 Patients living with one of the UK's most common heart rhythm conditions are 50% less likely to die from a heart attack or stroke than they were at the start of the millennium, analysis of ...
Aug. 25, 2023 In the new study, the team used the model to demonstrate that as Alzheimer's pathology accumulates in the brain, specific types of immune cells called CT8+ T Cells surge into the brain and ...
Aug. 24, 2023 Biomedical engineers have developed sophisticated optical techniques to monitor at close range the process by which protein aggregates form during liquid-to-liquid transition. This can lead to solid ...
Aug. 23, 2023 Researchers make progress in developing a digital biomarker that detects early signs of Alzheimer's disease in brainwave patterns using a simple 'wearable' headband at ...
Aug. 22, 2023 A new study uses more genetically diverse mouse models to study the accumulation and spread of abnormal tau protein deposits in the brain -- a known sign of Alzheimer's disease and several other ...
Aug. 21, 2023 New results suggest that intermittent fasting could be an effective treatment approach for Alzheimer's disease. Mice fed on a time-restricted schedule had better memory and less accumulation of ...
