Scientists have identified prematurely aged astrocytes in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients, particularly those with the APOE4 risk gene. Their findings suggest that cellular senescence in these ...

Understanding the timeline of Alzheimer's degeneration can improve support for those affected, and researchers have now built ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nutrients, a team of researchers in Australia conducted a review to understand the species-level diversity of the gut microbiome and its role in the ...

Scientists have made a breakthrough in understanding how Alzheimer’s disease develops, and a decades-old drug could be the key to stopping the condition in its tracks. It is well established that ...

New research has highlighted how lifestyle can potentially delay the onset of Alzheimer’s disease. The most common form of dementia, Alzheimer’s impacts nearly 7 million Americans - and that number is ...

A team of researchers at the Sant Pau Research Institute (IR Sant Pau) has demonstrated that the plasma biomarker p-tau217, obtained through a simple blood test, can predict the clinical progression ...

Tau proteins act like the brain's maintenance crew, helping maintain the structure and proper function of brain cells. In ...

Researchers have created a novel learning-based framework that will help Alzheimer's patients accurately pinpoint where they are within the disease-development spectrum. This will allow them to best ...

Daily step counts aligned with slower Alzheimer's progression in cognitively normal adults with elevated amyloid. Moderate levels of physical activity were linked to longer periods without cognitive ...

Obesity might contribute to faster progression of Alzheimer's disease, a new study says. Some blood markers associated with Alzheimer's increased nearly twice as fast among people with obesity ...
