A simple blood test for Alzheimer's would be a great advance for individuals with - and at risk for - the disease, families, doctors and researchers.

			Subtypes in alzheimer's disease may be linked to tau protein modifications A new study reveals a possible biological reason that Alzheimer's Disease (AD) progresses at different rates in different patients.

			Newly discovered Alzheimer's gene may drive earliest brain changes A newly discovered Alzheimer's gene may drive the first appearance of amyloid plaques in the brain, according to a study led by researchers at Columbia University Irving Medical Center.

	Brain imaging can predict cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have imaged tau protein in the brains of living patients with Alzheimer's disease.

	Study may help design effective treatments for Alzheimer’s disease Neurons in the brains of such people are being depleted gradually and inevitably, resulting in the characteristic loss of cognitive function and memory.

	Specific protein found at high levels in the blood of people with early signs of Alzheimer's Two decades or more before symptoms arise, plaques of a sticky protein called amyloid begin forming in the brains of people later diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.

	Personalized, precision approach can reverse memory loss in Alzheimer’s patients Cognitive decline is a major concern of the aging population. Already, Alzheimer's disease affects approximately 5.4 million Americans and 30 million people globally. Without effective prevention and treatment, the prospects for the future are bleak.

	Understanding the dynamics of amyloids is crucial to treat Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases Even though specific amyloids are found to have a biological function, the formation of amyloids is often linked to Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.
