Natural Compound Combo Restores Aging Brain Cells

Scientists have identified a natural compound combination that reverses aging-related brain cell decline and removes harmful Alzheimer’s-linked proteins. The treatment, combining nicotinamide (vitamin B3) and the green tea antioxidant epigallocatechin gallate, restores guanosine triphosphate (GTP) levels—critical for neuronal energy and protein cleanup.

Dementia Often Goes Undiagnosed for Over 3 Years

A global analysis has revealed that people with dementia wait an average of 3.5 years after symptom onset before receiving a diagnosis. The delay is even longer—about 4.1 years—for early-onset dementia, with younger patients and those with frontotemporal dementia facing the greatest lags.

Microglia May Hold Key to Slowing Alzheimer’s Progression

Alzheimer’s disease is marked by toxic amyloid-beta protein clumps, but some people seem naturally protected. A new study reveals that a receptor called ADGRG1 enables immune cells called microglia to effectively clear these harmful plaques.

Math Models Reveal Why Alzheimer’s Damages Some Brain Areas More

Alzheimer’s disease spreads unevenly through the brain, and new mathematical modeling may help explain why. Researchers developed a network diffusion model that simulates how tau protein accumulates and spreads, identifying genes that either increase or reduce vulnerability.

Music Shows Promise in Easing Distress in Dementia

A new study highlights how music therapy can help ease severe distress in dementia patients on hospital wards. The MELODIC approach embeds a music therapist to deliver sessions and create personalized musical care plans for patients.

Herpesvirus Infections May Accelerate Dementia

A new study finds that prior herpesvirus infections are linked to a faster age-related increase in blood biomarkers associated with dementia, even in cognitively healthy women. Researchers measured five key biomarkers in 167 women and found that seropositivity for HHVs doubled the rate of biomarker accumulation compared to those without prior infection.

Eating Eggs May Help Lower Alzheimer’s Risk

A large cohort study of older adults found that eating at least one egg per week was linked to a significantly lower risk of Alzheimer’s dementia. Participants who consumed eggs more frequently also showed less Alzheimer’s-related pathology in their brains at autopsy.

Tiny Brain Region Orchestrates How We Segment and Remember Life Events

Our memories don’t flow like a continuous stream—they’re divided into meaningful events, thanks to a tiny brain region called the locus coeruleus. New research shows this region acts like a “reset button,” activating at event boundaries to signal the hippocampus to store distinct memories.

Middle-Age Clues: Blood Biomarkers Signal Alzheimer’s Risk Early

New research shows that signs of Alzheimer’s disease can already be detected in the blood of people as young as their 40s. Finnish scientists found elevated Alzheimer’s-related biomarkers in middle-aged adults, especially among those with maternal history or kidney disease.

Why Women Face Higher Alzheimer’s Risk

Women are nearly twice as likely as men to develop Alzheimer’s disease, a disparity that can’t be fully explained by longevity alone. Researchers are exploring biological differences, focusing on X chromosome-linked genes and hormonal shifts like menopause.

Genes and Brain Wiring Team Up in Alzheimer’s Spread

A new study reveals how genes influence where and how Alzheimer’s-related tau protein spreads in the brain. By combining imaging, gene data, and advanced modeling, researchers uncovered four gene pathways that either amplify or resist tau buildup, depending on brain connectivity.

How Fast Your Brain Ages Could Determine Your Future Health

A new study reveals that our organs age at different speeds, and those differences can predict future disease risk and even life expectancy. Using blood-based protein signatures from over 44,000 participants, researchers developed an algorithm to estimate the biological age of 11 organ systems.
