Oral arginine reduces amyloid buildup in Alzheimer’s models

Alzheimer's disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, is one of the leading causes of dementia worldwide, and currently has no definitive cure. Although antibody-based therapies that target amyloid β (Aβ) have recently been developed, their clinical effectiveness remains limited.

Study clarifies how spermine can guard against Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s

Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have clarified how spermine - a small molecule that regulates many processes in the body's cells - can guard against diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's: it renders certain proteins harmless by acting a bit like cheese on noodles, making them clump together.

Astrocyte-driven approach shows potential to reverse cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have discovered a natural mechanism that clears existing amyloid plaques in the brains of mouse models of Alzheimer's disease and preserves cognitive function.

Breakthrough medium transforms canine stem cells into beating cardiomyocytes

In research, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are derived from skin, urine, or blood samples and developed into other cells, like heart tissue, that researchers want to study.

Study shows gluten sensitivity is driven by gut–brain interactions rather than gluten

A landmark study has revealed that gluten sensitivity, which affects approximately 10 per cent of the global population, is not actually about gluten but part of the way the gut and brain interact.

Specialized neurons help the brain detect where words begin and end

Why is it so easy to hear individual words in your native language, but in a foreign language they run together in one long stream of sound?

Diet swap alters breast milk composition within six days

Swapping beef for a plant-based meat substitute changed breast milk composition in just six days - even when the rest of the diet was made up of whole, unprocessed foods - according to a first-of-its-kind study from researchers at The University of Texas at Austin.

Young donor age proves critical for survival after stem cell transplantation

The selection of suitable donors is crucial for the long-term recovery of patients after an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).

New neuron signaling mechanism reveals safer pathway for pain treatment

Researchers at Tulane University, with a team of colleagues from eight other universities, have discovered a new nerve cell signaling mechanism that could transform our understanding of pain and lead to safer, more effective treatments.

Inflammatory biomarkers offer new insights for precision medicine in ischemic stroke

Ischemic stroke, a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide, is a complex cerebrovascular event with outcomes heavily influenced by the inflammatory response.

C-reactive protein shows stronger accuracy for early-onset sepsis in preterm newborns

Neonatal EOS, a severe bloodstream infection that strikes within the first three days of life, is a major cause of infant illness and death worldwide.

Scientists uncover molecular mechanism behind chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy

Chemotherapy activates a stress sensor in immune cells, triggering inflammation and nerve damage, which may help explain why many cancer patients experience debilitating pain as a side effect, according to a new study by Weill Cornell Medicine and Wake Forest University School of Medicine researchers

Changes in brain fats play a key role in Alzheimer's development and progression

More than a century ago, Alois Alzheimer noted unusual changes in brain fats, which he described as "lipoid granules," along with the buildup of amyloid-beta (amyloid) plaques and tau protein tangles.

Toxin-secreting gut bacterium emerges as a driver of ulcerative colitis

A toxin-secreting gut bacterium may fuel ulcerative colitis by killing protective immune cells that maintain intestinal homeostasis, according to a new study. The findings suggest potential for new treatment strategies.

RNA-based cocktail shows promise against glioblastoma

A patented RNA-based cocktail developed at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT-Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia) has emerged as a promising active agent against tumors of the central nervous system, such as glioblastoma.

Pairing antiviral therapy with immune modulation restores lung repair in lethal Influenza

Recovery from deadly influenza infection may hinge on helping the lungs heal in addition to stopping the virus, according to a new study in mice, which shows that pairing modest antiviral therapies with immune modulation can restore damaged tissues and lung function, even after severe infection has taken hold.
