A new study reports life expectancies are declining in the US for Generation X and Y individuals. Researchers say the causes of premature mortality vary by race, gender and ethnicity.
Researchers identified gene recombination in neurons that produces new gene variants in the brains of those with Alzheimer's disease. The findings, researchers say, may point to a potential near term treatment for the neurodegenerative disease.
A new Journal of Neuroscience study reports elevated levels of BACE1, an enzyme associated with neuronal damage in Alzheimer's disease, were identified in postmortem brain samples of those with HIV.
THC may slow the progress of cognitive decline that occurs in up to 50 percent of people with HIV, a new study reports.
Persistent inflammation may underlie HIV associated neurocognitive disorders in patients taking specific antiretroviral drugs, a new study reports.

Researchers report girls who experience menstruation before the age of 12 are more likely to enter into sexual relationships, pregnancy and marriage earlier than girls who begin their periods at a more advanced age.
Researchers report they have successfully been able to shut down and eliminate the HIV-a virus from infected cells in mice, thanks to the help of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology.
A new study reports people with Hepatitis B are up to 76% more likely to develop Parkinson's disease, and those with Hep C are 51% more likely to develop the disease.
Researchers have developed a method using MRI to identify when HIV is still present in the brain, despite effective drug treatment.
Researchers discovered some protease inhibitors used to treat HIV can lead to the production of the peptide amyloid beta.
