Groundbreaking research challenges long-held beliefs about Alzheimer's, revealing interconnections between major models of the disease and shedding new light on treatment possibilities.
Recent research led by Houston Methodist provides groundbreaking insights into how obesity potentially accelerates the progression of Alzheimer's disease. The study reveals that extracellular vesicles originating from fat tissue may carry damaging signals, fostering the accumulation of amyloid-β plaques in the brain, and act as conduits between body fat and brain health.
Recent research from Purdue University points to brain fat as a significant factor in the development of Alzheimer's disease, suggesting a new direction in combating the condition.
Researchers at Northern Arizona University are pioneering a blood test that may detect Alzheimer's disease by examining brain glucose metabolism, offering new avenues for early diagnosis and treatment.
A Japanese study reveals older Parkinson’s patients are more prone to amyloid buildups, an indication of Alzheimer’s, despite not showing dementia symptoms.
A comprehensive study involving 3.5 million cells from over 100 human brains has revealed that Alzheimer’s disease progression is significantly tied to the stability of epigenomic structures within the brain. Maintaining this stability could hold the key to resilience against the disease, providing new insights into potential treatment pathways.
