          Could a Brain Pathobiome Be The Hidden Culprit in Alzheimer’s Development?

          New research points to the possibility that the development of a pathobiome in the brain could play a role in Alzheimer's and related dementias. Studying brain samples, researchers discovered Alzheimer’s-affected brains had markedly different bacterial profiles compared to non-affected peers.

          Educational Buffer: How Learning Slows Genetic Alzheimer’s Risk

          Researchers examined the role of genetics and educational attainment in early-onset Alzheimer's disease, specifically focusing on carriers of the PSEN1 E280A mutation. They found that carriers with an additional high-risk mutation, APOE e4, experienced faster cognitive decline, while those with a protective APOE e2 mutation had delayed onset.
