A protein notorious for its role in Alzheimer’s disease may hold the key to supercharging the aging immune system, according ...

Scientists have found that a protein tied to Alzheimer’s disease may actually strengthen the immune system’s fight against ...

At first glance, Alzheimer's disease and cancer have little in common. One erodes memory, while the other consumes the body.

(A, B) ALP staining and activity detection were performed after treating cells with APPswe or BMP2 for 5 days or 7 days. (C, D) ARS staining and semiquantitative analysis were used to detect calcium ...

Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by certain key changes in the brain. Among them are the development of two kinds of ...

Alzheimer’s disease is likely caused by stalled protein processing in the brain, according to a new study. The research, published today as a Reviewed Preprint in eLife, is described by editors as a ...

While Lilly and Eisai/Biogen have validated the amyloid theory, there is an unmet need for drugs with alternative mechanisms ...

Scientists believe that in late-onset Alzheimer’s disease, Aβ clearance slows, causing the protein to accumulate in plaques. In the September 22 Nature Communications, researchers led by Michael ...

Lactylation, a recently identified post-translational modification, has emerged as important for immune regulation, tissue repair, cancer cell metabolism, and now, potentially, Alzheimer’s disease. In ...

In a recent study published in the journal PLOS Biology, researchers used mouse models to demonstrate that neurons were not the only source of abnormal amyloid β proteins contributing to the pathology ...
