Big data finds changes in blood flow mark the earliest sign of Alzheimer's. Additionally, the study found cognitive changes begin earlier in the disease progression than thought.
Failure of mitochondrial function may contribute to the development of late onset Alzheimer's disease, a new study reports.
A new study of the genetic data from over 94,000 people with Alzheimer's has identified five new risk genes, as well as confirmed 20 other known genes in the disease.
Study implicates a genetic variation within a segment of the Mucin 6 gene as a new risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers have identified 216 new gene variants that appear to play a role in the development of late-onset Alzheimer's disease.
