Amyloid deposition is a hallmark of neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). This accumulation process follows a sigmoidal pattern where misfolded proteins…
Scientists at the Max Planck Institute discovered a mechanism where the insulin superfamily of hormones, specifically IGF1 and IGF2, are locally produced and released by…
New research has found that evaluating a protein level in the spinal fluid of cognitively healthy adults can forecast the future development of mild cognitive…
Levels of the TRIM11 protein were found to be reduced in models of Alzheimer’s disease, according to new research from Penn Medicine. The study suggests…
According to a study recently published in Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, individuals carrying the APOE e4 gene variant, which…
Recent in vitro research indicates that compounds in espresso could potentially inhibit tau protein aggregation, a process linked with Alzheimer’s disease. Preliminary findings showed that…
A study conducted by UCLA Health reveals that Kundalini yoga increases brain activity in a region impacted by stress and linked to memory decline. A…
Recent findings from King’s College London’s Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (IoPPN) suggest differences in the way pain signals are processed in a mouse…
A recent study from UVA Health on Alzheimer’s disease suggests that increased sensitivity to light might contribute to “sundowning” – the deterioration of the disease’s…
Recent findings point to a key role of the gut in maintaining brain health. Results from a recent study indicate that the use of a…
A vaccine that targets inflamed brain cells associated with Alzheimer’s disease could possibly modify or prevent the disease, according to preliminary research. A novel vaccine…
Scientists from Scripps Research and the University of Bologna have demonstrated that increased alcohol intake in animals can accelerate cognitive deterioration in those genetically susceptible…
Regular olive oil consumption is associated with a 28% lower risk of fatal dementia. A recent study suggests that incorporating olive oil into one’s diet…
Chunyu Wang, Ph.D., professor of biological sciences at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, has added to his body of research on Alzheimer’s disease with his latest findings…
Researchers highlight the importance of caregivers having conversations with care recipients and healthcare professionals about driving. The majority of older adults with cognitive impairment continue…
Scientists have identified a protein, Arl8b, associated with Alzheimer’s disease. Found in high levels alongside amyloid-beta plaques in both mice and humans, Arl8b could be…
The FDA is anticipated to approve a third Alzheimer’s drug, donanemab, signaling progress in slowing the disease. The drug showed a 35% slowdown in cognitive…
