Carries of the TREM2 genetic mutation associated with Alzheimer's disease could develop the disease up to three years earlier than expected, a new study finds.
Researchers have identified 11 new genes which offer important new insights into the disease pathways associated with Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers uncover a second rare genetic mutation which increases the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease later in life.
According to a new study, triggering TREM2 could help slow the progression of some neurodegenerative diseases.
A new study investigates how genetics risk factors for Alzheimer's could influence a key immune cell.
Researchers have identified a biomarker that is associated with the activation of an innate immune response to neural damage during the early stages of Alzheimer's disease.
Having a sedentary lifestyle and eating a western diet is linked to an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, a new study reports.
Researchers report microglia may actually protect the brain against Alzheimer's disease by containing the spread of amyloid plaques.
Researchers have developed a new technique to measure levels of amyloid beta in the brain. They have also discovered new insights into why mutations of the TREM2 gene increases the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers report the TREM2 mutation can derail the immune cell's plaque-clearing activity.
Researchers have discovered an early immune response in people with a genetic predisposition to Alzheimer's disease.
Findings may help to shed light on how Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases develop.
