New research shows astrocytes are key to swaying the pendulum in Alzheimer's disease progression

Why do some people develop Alzheimer's disease while others don't? And, even more puzzlingly, why do many individuals whose brains are chock-full of toxic amyloid aggregates - a telltale sign of Alzheimer's brain pathology - never go on to develop Alzheimer's-associated dementias?

Novel assay for identifying individuals with synucleinopathies using serum samples

Synucleinopathies are a group of neurodegenerative diseases caused by the abnormal accumulation α-synuclein, a protein normally found in the brain and neurons. Incorrect folding of α-synuclein leads to formation of 'seeds', which attract more α-synuclein proteins to form larger clumps.

Two key physiological systems found to be involved in high-salt-induced hypertension and dementia

Dementia is defined as the loss of cognitive functioning - including thinking, remembering, and reasoning - and is very prevalent in Japan.

Novel treatment targets against natural killer/T-cell lymphoma identified

A team of researchers from the Cancer Science Institute of Singapore (CSI Singapore) at the National University of Singapore has discovered that a transcription factor, TOX2, was aberrantly increased in patients with Natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTL).

Modest reduction in beta-amyloidogenic processing of APP may be a viable strategy to prevent Alzheimer's disease

A new study conducted by researchers at the University of Eastern Finland discovered that the APP A673T genetic variant, which protects against Alzheimer’s disease, alters levels of several proteins and peptides linked to amyloid-beta metabolism in human biofluids and cell culture models, including amyloid beta itself.
