Boosting mitochondria may defend against a form of protein stress that can reduce the formation of amyloid plaques, EPFL researchers report. Read More
Researchers have generated motor neurons from people with familial ALS who carry FUS mutations. Read More
A new study reports antioxidant intervention during early stages of Parkinson's disease may help slow its progression. Read More
Researchers have developed a method of removing damaged mitochondria in fruit flies, causing the insects to become more active and increasing typical lifespan. UCLA researchers report the method could eventually be used to benefit humans and delay the onset of age-related diseases. Read More
Brain dysfunction noted in schizophrenia patients may be a result of impaired expression of a protein complex associated with protein synthesis, researchers report. Read More
A new study reports mitochondrial changes may be important risk factors for identifying those with autism spectrum disorders. Read More
A new Nature Neuroscience study provides evidence that necroptosis is linked to cognitive decline and severity of Alzheimer's disease. The finding that necroptosis is activated in Alzheimer's provides a plausible mechanism that underlies the neuron loss associated with the disease. Read More
Researchers from EPFL have uncovered how diazepam, a common anxiolytic, can increase mitochondrial activity in neural pathways associated with motivation. Read More
Researchers believe low oxygen therapy could prevent, and may even reverse, mitochondrial disorders in people. Read More
Researchers link obsessive behaviors in frontotemporal dementia to immune pathways and suggest targeting the immune system could be a new strategy for the treatment of FTD. Read More
Researchers have discovered a new cellular mechanism that may be a root cause of multiple sclerosis. Read More
Summary: A new study reports researchers have identified a substance that can help to induce the reversal of aging. Source:... Read More
