Jens Pahnke on Protective APP Mutation Found—Supports Amyloid Hypothesis

COMMENT This is a nice finding by Jonsson et al., and adds more evidence to the idea published in 2009 by an Italian group that changes to this amino acid position in APP can prevent or facilitate aggregation of human Aβ. It seems that amino acids at position 2 o

Lei Feng on A Boost for Waning DNA Tags Fixes Age-Related Memory Loss in Mice

COMMENT This is very interesting. I am wondering how to relate those findings to the roles of folate in brain function and cognitive aging in humans. Folate provides one carbon group to methylate DNA and other substrates. In population-based studies, low folate h
