In familial Alzheimer’s disease, rise in NfL in the blood precedes disease onset by 16 years.
Frail people may be more likely to have Aβ plaques and neurofibrillary tangles; when they do, they are more likely to have dementia. Physical activity correlated with better global cognition, regardless of brain pathology.
Reducing systolic blood pressure staves off cognitive decline, but what about dementia?
The FDA has prioritized review of C2N’s blood test for amyloid-β. A pivotal clinical trial will correlate the test with amyloid PET scans.
New work implicates changes in chromatin structure and failed DNA repair in neurodegeneration.
A longitudinal study finds that middle-aged people with the highest levels of inflammation markers in their blood succumb to the greatest cognitive decline over the next 20 years.
Human cells show more phenotypic variation than mouse microglia, but the two match up well overall.
