Low HDL and high triglyceride levels in the blood at 35 were associated with an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease later in life. Additionally, higher glucose levels between 51 and 60 were linked to a higher risk of Alzheimer's.
Post-genomic analysis of the regulation of synapses in a rodent hippocampus sheds new light on the interaction of proteins and lipids within the synaptic membrane.
CMS121, a synthesized variant of fisetin, a chemical found in fruits and vegetables, improved memory, and slows neurodegeneration in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease.
Stimulating mouse neurons in a dish lead to a build-up to fatty acids and lipid particle release. Astrocytes engulfed the particles and increased genetic activity associated with detoxification.
A new Science study sheds light on how the gut microbiota interacts with circadian rhythm to impact metabolism. Researchers say the finding could help explain why those who work night shifts have higher rates of metabolic diseases.

Researchers have developed several new lipid based diets that appear to slow the progression of Alzheimer's in mouse models of the disease.
Researchers have identified biochemical changes that occur in the blood of people with an inherited form of Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers discover a potential biomarker for episodic migraine in women.
A new study reports glial cells use lipids to direct neuron organization in the spinal cord.
