Scientists at Washington University in St. Louis have engineered brain cells to hunt and destroy amyloid plaques, cutting toxic buildup by roughly half in aged mice with advanced Alzheimer’s-like ...

New noninvasive tools reveal that subtle shifts in brain blood flow and oxygen use may mirror key markers of Alzheimer’s risk ...

A team at the University of California, San Francisco has identified a specific liver-produced enzyme that explains, at the molecular level, how physical exercise protects the aging brain from ...

Scientists at Rice University have produced the first full, dye-free molecular atlas of an Alzheimer’s brain. By combining ...

TOKYO, Feb 14, 2025 - (JCN Newswire) - - Oita University and Eisai Co., Ltd. (Eisai) announced today the development of a machine learning model to predict amyloid beta(1)(Abeta) accumulation in the ...

Virginia Tech researchers are investigating how overloaded mitochondria in the brain’s memory circuits may spark early Alzheimer’s damage. Their work focuses on calcium signaling and how it might ...

Scientists have long been racking their brains for ways to treat Alzheimer’s disease, the most common type of dementia. Turns out that the answer may lie within our own brains. Researchers from ...

A loss of brain volume associated with new immunotherapies for Alzheimer's disease may be caused by the removal of amyloid plaques, rather than the loss of neurons or brain tissue, finds a study led ...

Using a new animal model of Alzheimer’s disease, the study suggests a potential breakthrough in treatment strategies. Current therapies mainly focus on blocking just one of the toxic proteins ...

Why some memories persist while others vanish has fascinated scientists for more than a century. Now, new research from the Stowers Institute has identified the mechanism that makes a fleeting moment ...
