A new mouse model has been developed that captures the pathology of sporadic neurodegenerative diseases.
A gene that is critical in early stages of embryonic development appears to also play a key role in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and frontotemporal dementia, researchers say.
Researchers have identified a genetic mutation associated with both ALS and frontotemporal dementia.
A new tool allows researchers to observe granulins inside cells.
Researchers believe a newly discovered mechanism may contribute to cell death in people suffering from ALS and dementia.
Researchers report neurodegeneration associated with frontotemporal dementia could span from a reduced trophic support for neurons.
Researchers link obsessive behaviors in frontotemporal dementia to immune pathways and suggest targeting the immune system could be a new strategy for the treatment of FTD.
Researchers have identified two drugs, including one in trial as an anti-cancer drug, that appears to prevent neurodegeneration.
Researchers have identified a common mechanism in both frontotemporal dementia and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis.
Researchers report a new compound could help prevent and may even reverse some of the brain injury caused by the Tau protein in dementia.
Researchers discover a way doctors can detect early signs of Alzheimer's by looking at the back of patients' eyes.
A new study may help shed light on the diversity of dementias linked to tau protein aggregation.
