A New Culprit of Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer’s
Researchers have identified a potential new biomarker for cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer's disease. The study reports fibrinogen, a blood clotting protein, causes a series of molecular events that may trigger the destruction of connections between neurons, resulting in cognitive decline....

Decreased Deep Sleep Linked to Early Alzheimer’s Disease
A new study links poor sleep quality in older adults with elevated levels of tau, a protein associated with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers report poor sleep quality later in life may be associated with declining brain health and may be an early indicator of Alzheimer's disease.... Read More...
Histamines Can Boost Long Term Memory of Objects
Researchers report histamines can help improve memory of objects up-to 25 days longer than normal in mice, as well as improving people's long term memory test scores. The study suggests taking histamines may help alleviate symptoms of memory disorders such as Alzheimer's and other dementias.... Read More...
Orange Juice, Leafy Greens and Berries Tied to Decreased Memory Loss in Men
Study reports 34% of men who consumed more leafy vegetables, and 47% who regularly drank orange juice were less likely to develop poor cognitive skills than those who did not. ... Read More...
Music and Meditation Alters Biomarkers of Alzheimer’s and Cellular Aging
According to researchers, meditation and listening to music may help to alter biomarkers associated with cellular aging and Alzheimer's disease in adults experiencing memory loss. ... Read More...
Reversing Memory Loss: Mouse Study
Researchers report osterocalcin, a naturally occurring hormone, can help boost memory in aging mice. The findings pave the way for new treatments to help stave off, and possibly reverse memory loss in humans.... Read More...
Early Alzheimer’s Brain Pathology Linked to Psychiatric Symptoms
Researchers report the earliest signs of neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer's disease are linked to some psychiatric symptoms, including anxiety, depression and sleep disturbances. The findings could lead to earlier diagnosis of Alzheimer's.... Read More...
Previous Motherhood Could Affect Hormone Therapy’s Ability to Prevent Memory Loss
A new study reports mother rats who received hormone replacement therapy responded worse to memory and spatial learning tasks than those who had not given birth. Researchers suggest a woman's reproductive history could impact how the brain responds to hormones later in life.... Read More...
New Mechanism Involved in Age Related Memory Loss Discovered
Researchers report specific alterations in signaling circuits associated with memory can induce an abnormal response in neurons, which is linked to the aging process and cognitive decline. ... Read More...
New Blood Test Useful to Detect Those at Risk of Developing Alzheimer’s
Researchers have developed a new blood test capable of detecting biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease long before the first symptoms appear.... Read More...
High Resolution Brain Imaging Provides Clues to Age Related Memory Loss
The decline of signalling in the anterolateral entorhinal cortex has been linked to memory loss associated with aging, a new neuroimaging study reveals.... Read More...
