          Artificial intelligence algorithm can accurately predict risk and diagnose Alzheimer’s disease

          Combining brain imaging data with a new machine learning algorithm, researchers can accurately predict the risk and determine a diagnosis for Alzheimer's disease.

          Researchers unravel protein mystery of three brain diseases

          Researchers have identified two different shapes of alpha-synuclein associated with multiple systems atrophy (MSA) and Lewy body dementia. The structure of the protein is helical in MSA, causing the symptoms to occur more quickly and aggressively. In Lewy body dementia, the protein takes on a cylindrical form.

          APOE4 triggers early breakdowns in the blood-brain barrier

          APOE4, a gene implicated as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, triggers leaks in the blood-brain barrier. The damage to capillaries APOE4 causes correlates with increased levels of cyclophilin, a protein that causes the inflammation that is a signature of early Alzheimer's.

          More evidence Parkinson’s disease may start in the gut

          Enteric neurons appear to play a key role in the development of Parkinson's disease. The findings support the hypothesis and previous studies that the neurodegenerative disease may start in the gut before spreading to the brain. Researchers also found oligodendrocytes were affected during the early stages of Parkinson's, even before the loss of dopaminergic neurons.

          Reducing neuroinflammation in the brain before cognitive impairment becomes apparent can help slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease.

          A newly developed blood test for Alzheimer's disease measures a specific variant of the tau protein. Early results show the test has a good capacity to distinguish Alzheimer's disease from other tauopathies.

          Which foods do you eat together? How you combine them may raise dementia risk

          In the case of dementia, it might not be what you eat, but more of what combination of foods you eat, which increases your risk of developing the neurodegenerative disorder. Researchers found those whose diets consisted mostly of highly-processed meats, starchy foods, and sugary snacks were more likely to be diagnosed with dementia later in life that those who consumed healthier foods.

          Further evidence autoimmunity plays a role in Parkinson’s disease

          T cells that react to alpha-synuclein are most abundant in the early stages of Parkinson's disease but tend to disappear as the disease progresses. Signs of autoimmunity can appear in Parkinson's patients up to ten years before a diagnosis of the neurodegenerative disease. The detection of T cell response could be an early biomarker for Parkinson's, long before the physical symptoms begin to manifest.

          When damaged, the adult brain repairs itself by going back to the beginning

          Mouse models of corticospinal injuries reveal adult neurons begin a natural regeneration process by reverting back to an embryonic state. The regeneration is sustained with the help of a gene more commonly associated with Huntington's disease.

          Being “right-brained” or “left-brained” comes down to molecular switches

          Epigenetic regulation controls whether certain genes on each side of the brain are switched on or off. The findings shed light on why Parkinson's disease often affects one side of the body before the other.
