Alzheimer’s is the most common form of dementia — it causes memory loss, confusion, thinking problems and behavioral changes.

A breakthrough study highlights Xenon gas as a potential game-changer in treating Alzheimer’s disease, demonstrating its ...

Most treatments being pursued today to protect against Alzheimer’s disease focus on amyloid plaques and tau tangles that accumulate in the brain, but new research from Mass General Brigham and ...

Nuclear fusion and fission might sound similar, but they are fundamentally opposite processes. While nuclear fission breaks ...

Researchers have identified genetic variations in brain cells, particularly microglia and oligodendrocytes, that influence both aging and Alzheimer’s risk.

Therapeutic approaches target components of the peripheral immune system, such as regulatory T cells and monocytes, which in turn act within the CNS. Microglia are the primary immune cells in the ...

Immune cells in the brain called microglia can partially break down large amyloid plaques characteristic of Alzheimer's disease by latching on to ...

ICH is believed to cause brain injury through 2 main pathways. In contrast to the immediate primary injury of hematoma formation, which ensues from mechanical damage to surrounding brain tissue during ...

The study highlights microglia, the brain's primary immune cells, as central players in both the protective and harmful responses associated with the disease. Researchers with the Advanced Science ...
