A natural compound may extend life and prevent Alzheimer’s

Regular exercise can reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease and slow the development of brain lesions.

A natural compound may extend life and prevent Alzheimer’s

Researchers from the University of Seville in Spain, along with scientists from the University of Kent in the U.K., have made an exciting discovery that could impact health and longevity. They found that a natural compound called phytoene, found in many fruits and vegetables, can extend the lifespan of a tiny organism called Caenorhabditis elegans and protect against […] The post A natural compound may extend life and prevent Alzheimer’s appeare…

Rejuvenation of senescent microglia using glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist attenuates Alzheimer’s disease-like pathologies and behavioral deficits in aged 5xFAD mice model

Aging is associated with cellular senescence, wherein cells lose their replicative ability. Cellular senescence may contribute to various aging-related diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor...

British researchers have found that a common herpes virus can significantly increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.

DMZ – RESEARCH ¦ Lena Wallner Scientists have found in a study evidence that infection with SARS-CoV-2 can lead to changes in the blood plasma associated with Alzheimer's typical brain changes. The study conducted in the UK Biobank suggests that COVID-19 could have long-term effects on neurodegenerative processes. Increased amyloid pathology after SARS-CoV-2 infection The study analyzed biomarkers in the blood of 1,252 participants to identify p…

A shocking diagnosis has just been made in China: a 19-year-old man would have Alzheimer's disease. This discovery calls into question our knowledge of this pathology. How can we explain the early onset of this neurodegenerative disease? What...
