          Antiviral Pathway a Potential New Target for Alzheimer’s Treatment

          Inhibiting cGAS, an innate immune system enzyme allows neurons to become more resilient to tau fibrils. The new finding may serve in the development of new therapies to help treat Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia, two neurodegenerative disorders associated with tau build-up in the brain.

          Towards Better Management of Disinhibition in Frontotemporal Dementia

          People with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) exhibit behaviors that are considered socially unacceptable. While there is no current cure for FTD, researchers are finding methods to help inhibit some of the negative behaviors associated with FTD. A new study reports impulsivity and negative behaviors are greatly reduced in those with bvFTD when the patient is focused on a task.

          Potential Hidden Cause of Dementia Discovered

          Some patients diagnosed with behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia (bv-FTD) may instead be suffering from a cerebrospinal fluid leak that leads to brain sagging.

          Educational Background and Previous Brain Injury May Be Associated With Higher Risk of Frontotemporal Dementia

          Previous TBI increased the risk of frontotemporal dementia in those without a genetic risk factor for FTD. Additionally, researchers found those with FTD tend to be less educated than those with Alzheimer's disease.

          Memory and Logic Test Detects Dementia Signs up to Nine Years Ahead of Diagnosis

          People who later developed Alzheimer's disease scored poorly on memory and logic-based tests, as well as reaction times and grip tests. They were also more likely to have experienced a fall within the past 12 months. Those who developed PSP were twice as likely to experience a fall.

          Using neuroimaging and fluid biomarkers from those with the familial form of frontotemporal dementia (FTD), researchers developed models of clinical and biomarker dynamics to determine the temporal sequences of biomarkers and clinical changes in f-FTD before disease progression begins.
