A new mouse study correlates neurofibrillary tangles with navigation difficulties and impaired firing of “grid cells” in the entorhinal cortex.
Two parallel studies found different answers as to whether calorie-restricted macaques live longer than ones that eat their fill. A joint analysis sets the record straight.
Convened by ARUK to learn from the antibody’s billion-dollar bust, industry and academic leaders declare insufficient CNS target engagement, say peripheral sink did not work, and brainstorm how to move forward.
Solanezumab: Did Aβ ‘Reflux’ From Blood Confound Target Engagement in CSF? After Solanezumab: Where Should Alzheimer’s Research Go? At an expert meeting convened by Alzheimer’s Research UK, scientists from Eli Lilly shared Aβ biomarker data from the Exped
The acute state of confusion not only accelerates memory loss on its own, but also worsens decline caused by other pathologies, including Alzheimer’s disease.
In induced cells from people with a C9ORF72 expansion, the number of mutant transcripts matched the number of RNA foci per cell.
Neurons of the humble roundworm pack damaged organelles and protein aggregates into giant vesicles and heave them out into extracellular space. Do our neurons do that, too?
Transgenic mouse models devoid of gut microbes make fewer Aβ plaques.
A well-controlled trials shows that a year of treatment offers no cognitive benefit for older men with low testosterone levels.
Produced by the dreaded MRSA bacterium, PSMα3 is the first known example of a natural peptide that forms amyloid fibers made not of β-sheets, but of neatly stacked α-helices.
ALS patients eliminate more p75 neurotrophin receptor than do healthy controls. P75 urine levels rise as disease worsens.
NIH funds a five-year project to validate biomarkers for clinical trials.
Quality control issues may have scuppered clinical trials.
