Stem-cell-derived brain cells hold promise for Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s research

Stem-cell-derived brain cells hold promise for Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s research

Researchers on the University of Wisconsin–Madison have identified a protein key to the event of a sort of brain cell believed to play a task in disorders like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases and used the invention to grow the neurons from stem cells for the primary time. The stem-cell-derived norepinephrine neurons of the kind present […]

Redefining the battle against Alzheimer’s with tau-focused treatments

Redefining the battle against Alzheimer’s with tau-focused treatments

In a recent article published within the journal Nature Reviews Neurology, researchers discuss the efficacy of tau-targeting Alzheimer’s disease (AD) therapies and methods that might be implemented to enhance these treatments, especially immunotherapies. Study: Tau-targeting therapies for Alzheimer disease: Current status and future directions. Image Credit: Gorodenkoff / Shutterstock.com Background Since 2018, the prevalence of AD has increased […]

UCSF dementia experts to affix peers at annual Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s disease conference

Dementia experts from UC San Francisco will join their peers from across the globe on the annual Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease (CTAD) conference in Boston from Oct. 24 to 27. Presentations cover breakthroughs in therapies that clear amyloid – a trademark of Alzheimer’s – and a symposium on patients with early Alzheimer’s symptoms who […]

Photobiomodulation in sleep has more therapeutic effects for Alzheimer’s disease than in wakefulness

Photobiomodulation in sleep has more therapeutic effects for Alzheimer’s disease than in wakefulness

It’s well-known that sleep is the most effective medication. Nevertheless, it continues to be unknown why the brain recovers higher in sleep and whether these processes might be controlled. Recent discoveries have shown that the lymphatic system of the brain is activated during sleep, which contributes to the removal of metabolites, toxins and unnecessary molecules […]

The key to protecting your memory could also be a staple of a bodybuilder’s weight-reduction plan. RUSH researchers recently discovered that a muscle-building complement called beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate, also called HMB, may help protect memory, reduce plaques and ultimately help prevent the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. HMB is just not a prescription drug or a steroid, […]

Latest program offers climbing adventures for individuals with younger-onset Alzheimer’s

Latest program offers climbing adventures for individuals with younger-onset Alzheimer’s

Starting this July, people diagnosed with Alzheimer’s before age 65 may have a brand new opportunity to attach with others while exploring the good outdoors through a program called SOAR. The name is an acronym for Shared Outdoor Adventures for Resilience. Offered by the UW Medicine Memory and Brain Wellness Center, SOAR will feature free […]

Blood vessel abnormalities in the attention could drive Alzheimer’s disease

UCSF dementia experts to affix peers at annual Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s disease conference

Blood vessel abnormalities in the attention are a significant component within the progression of Alzheimer’s disease, in keeping with research from Cedars-Sinai investigators published within the peer-reviewed journal Alzheimer’s & Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer’s Association. These changes correspond to changes within the brain, offering a brand new possibility for early diagnosis. “This study […]
