Researchers investigate how toxic proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease spread throughout the brain.
According to a new study in eLife, adults who were born prematurely or who suffered small brain injuries around the time of birth have reduced dopamine levels.
Using Raman imaging technology, University of Twente researchers have been able to obtain clear images of brain tissue affected by Alzheimer's disease.
A new study reports on a surprising link between OSA and Alzheimer's disease. Researchers report people who suffer a number of apneas per hour have increased accumulation of amyloid beta in the brain over time.
Cortice Biosciences announced today results from placebo-controlled, double-blinded Phase 1 studies evaluating TPI 287, a brain penetrable microtubule stabilizing agent, for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal syndrome (CBS).
Researchers report they have discovered where the earliest signs of Alzheimer's may occur in the brain. Initial accumulation of Alzheimer's associated amyloid beta was discovered in an important functional network, the default mode network.
A new imaging system has allowed researchers to map whole brain distribution of senile plaques in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease. The technique could help propel Alzheimer's research and speed up the development of new treatments.
Weill Cornell Medicine researchers may have answered why women are more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease than men. In a new PLOS ONE study, researchers reveal menopause can cause metabolic changes in the brain that appear to increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers have been able to restore consciousness to a patient who has been in a vegetative state for 15 years. The groundbreaking study utilized vagus nerve stimulation to help restore consciousness to the patient.
Researchers at Lund University have developed a new imaging method that can help doctors detect and track Alzheimer's disease in people of different ages more effectively.
A PET neuroimaging study reveals high intensity impact training significantly increases endorphin release in brain areas associated with controlling emotion and pain.
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.
