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 ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

P-tau217 and p-tau181 are some of the earliest known markers of Alzheimer’s disease, rising in blood and cerebrospinal fluid 20 years before symptoms appear. But what do these markers mean? In the ...
