Imagine Alzheimer’s disease as a complex puzzle, with amyloid-beta (Aβ) being the key piece. In this study, scientists set out to uncover additional pieces of the puzzle by identifying genes associated with Aβ uptake in the Korean population. They conducted various tests on 759 participants and discovered six novel genes that displayed a significant association […]
Imagine if there was a magical 40 Hz flickering light that could help treat Alzheimer’s disease. Well, scientists are exploring just that! In a recent clinical trial called ALZLIGHT, researchers are testing the efficacy and safety of a non-invasive light therapy system that induces 40 Hz neural activity in patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease. The […]
Understanding the impact of genetic background on animal models of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is crucial for improving their translational validity. Researchers have proposed introducing genetic diversity into AD mouse models to uncover new genetic factors contributing to AD susceptibility or resilience. In a recent study, scientists crossed the 5XFAD AD mouse model with different genetic […]
