A new study reports researchers have successfully reversed memory loss in fly models of Alzheimer's disease by restoring the balance between to enzymes that regulate gene expression.
Pericytes could provide novel targets for the treatment and diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, a new study reports.
Researchers use a novel genomic approach to better understand genetic mutations associated with familial Alzheimer's disease.
While genetics may increase your risk of developing dementia, other factors such as lifestyle and environment may play a key role in the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease.
Elevated levels of LDL cholesterol has been linked to an increased risk of early-onset Alzheimer's disease, in those with and without a genetic risk factor. This suggests cholesterol could be an independent risk factor for dementia. Additionally, researchers identified a potential new genetic risk factor for early-onset Alzheimer's, a rare variant of the APOB gene.
Scientists found diverse genomic changes in single neurons from the brains of Alzheimer’s patients, pointing to an unexpected factor that may underpin the most common form of the disease.
A new study provides insight into the link between ApoE4 and SirT1, an anti-aging protein found is resveratrol.
Researchers report of creating two new mouse models of Alzheimer's disease. They believe the models could potentially revolutionize research into the neurodegenerative disease.
Abnormalities are linked to axonal dysfunctions and neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome, a new study reports.
Researchers report extra copies of genes on chromosome 21 increase Alzheimer's like pathology and cognitive impairment in mouse models of Down syndrome. The findings provide insight into early onset Alzheimer's in those with Down syndrome.
Researchers have identified a new pathway that can dampen the production of amyloid beta.
Researchers explain how a novel gene therapy approach could help treat Alzheimer's disease.
