Low levels of 'memory strengthening protein' may serve as early predictor of mild cognitive impairment

Results of a long-term, federally funded study of cognitively healthy adults — most with a family history of Alzheimer's disease — have added to evidence that low spinal fluid levels of a protein linked to learning and memory in mice may serve as an early predictor of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) years before symptoms appear.
