Researchers from the University of Chicago have discovered that microglia play a key role in the relationship between the gut microbiome and β-amyloid deposits in male mice in a model of Alzheimer’s ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . SAN DIEGO — Identifying regions vulnerable to beta-amyloid deposits in younger populations may help predict ...

Activating two somatostatin receptors enhances amyloid beta breakdown and improves memory in models of Alzheimer’s disease.

For decades, Alzheimer’s disease has been framed as a one‑way slide, with treatments aiming only to slow the descent. Now a ...

A recent study led by a team of researchers at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine examining aging mice has provided what is believed to be the first evidence that amyloid beta ...

Alzheimer's disease research has shown that the build up of amyloid plaques between brain cells is a strong predictor of neurodegeneration. Now, a new study suggests those same protein deposits also ...

Scientists believe that in late-onset Alzheimer’s disease, Aβ clearance slows, causing the protein to accumulate in plaques. In the September 22 Nature Communications, researchers led by Michael ...

Researchers have now proposed a molecular mechanism that links amyloid deposition in the aortic valve with degenerative calcification. They also theorize that other risk factors for CAVD, such as high ...

Measurement of the rate of cellular amyloid uptake and metabolic production of toxic amyloid species could be used as novel biomarkers for early and/or differential diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease ...

The emergence of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in December 2019 led to the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Apart from the acute effects of ...

At first glance, it might appear that better access to so-called amyloid-PET scans could compensate for some of the racial inequities in Alzheimer’s disease, as Linda Goler Blount called for in a ...
