Sevoflurane, an anesthetic, causes tau to leave neurons and enter microglia. This stimulates the production of interleukin-6, leading to inflammation and cognitive impairment.
Combining αGITR antibodies with ICBs resulted in stronger survival benefits in mouse models of human glioblastoma brain cancer.
A number of videos have surfaced on popular channels showing people experiencing some adverse effects following the coronavirus vaccine. Researchers say some of the cases could be related to functional neurological disorder, a common neuropsychological condition.
A new whole-genome sequencing study has revealed thirteen novel genes associated with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers also found a new link between Alzheimer's and synaptic function.
Researchers found that while there are genetic overlaps between the sexes in relation to mental health disorders, there are also sex-specific differences in how genes related to the immune system, central nervous system, and blood vessels affect people with mental health problems.
A new genetic engineering strategy significantly reduces levels of tau in animal models of Alzheimer's disease. The treatment, which involves a single injection, appears to have long-last effects.
Researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence algorithm designed to examine existing drugs as potential Alzheimer's treatments.
How often a person takes a daytime nap, or whether they sleep during the daytime at all, is regulated by their genes, a new study reports.
A new automated method can identify and track the development of tau deposits in the brain. The method could lead to an earlier diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.
Neurologists say police forces claiming chokeholds and neck restraints as a method of controlling aggravated or aggressive people are "safe methods" is erroneous and dangerous. Neck restraints, researchers say, are never medically appropriate, and minor force can lead to stroke, seizures, and death.
Ezogabine, an antiepileptic drug, reduces the excitability of cortical and spinal motor neurons associated with ALS.
Children who experience the death of a pet may experience long-lasting and profound grief, which could lead to subsequent mental health problems. Researchers found strong emotional attachment to a pet may result in measurable psychological distress that serves as an indicator of depression in children and adolescents for three years or more after their animal dies.
