Researchers discover TMEM175, a cellular safeguard that prevents toxic buildup linked to Parkinson's when it malfunctions.
A small trial found tocilizumab, an anti-inflammatory drug, cut depression remission rates better than SSRIs by targeting IL-6, not brain chemistry.
Blocking the protein PTP1B boosted memory and cleared brain plaque in mice, with potential links to diabetes and obesity treatment.
A new tool that boosts mitochondrial activity in neurons restored memory in dementia mice, suggesting energy failure drives Alzheimer's symptoms.
Declining Menin in the hypothalamus drives inflammation and aging. Restoring it reversed decline; D-serine amino acid improved cognition in mice.
Researchers finally discovered how lecanemab clears brain plaques by activating immune cells through a specific antibody fragment.
Scientists discover brain support cells help glioblastoma grow and identify existing HIV drug that could disrupt this deadly communication.
Researchers finally discovered lecanemab activates brain immune cells through a specific antibody fragment to clear toxic plaques.
Scientists discover tanycytes help clear toxic tau from the brain. When damaged, these cells may allow Alzheimer's progression.
