Amyloid beta pathology may be more versatile than previously thought, a new study reports.
Findings support the hypothesis that higher levels of amyloid in the brain is an indicator of the early stages of Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimer Plagues in 3d – Swiss researchers succeeded in generating detailed three-dimensional images of the spatial distribution of amyloid plaques...
Study reports specific gut bacteria can influence the development of Alzheimer's disease. In mouse models, long term antibiotic treatment reduced inflammation and the formation of amyloid plaques. However, the reduction was only seen in males. Additionally, the antibiotic treatment altered the activation of microglia in the male mouse models.
Researchers have developed a new antibody design that can increase the uptake of antibodies to the brain by almost a 100 fold.
Researchers have succeeded in passing an antibody through the blood-brain barrier to act as a tracer for PET neuroimaging.
A new imaging technique may provide researchers with better insights into neurological disorders.

McGill University researchers have developed a deep learning algorithm capable of detecting signatures of dementia in patients two years before the onset of symptoms by reviewing a single PET brain scan.
Researchers report boys on the autism spectrum tend to have lower fractal dimension in the right side of the cerebellum than those without autism.
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.
