Scientists Found the Hidden Switch Fueling Alzheimer’s Brain Inflammation

Scientists found the hidden switch fueling alzheimer’s brain inflammation

Scientists at Scripps Research have uncovered a molecular “switch” that appears to fuel the damaging brain inflammation seen in Alzheimer’s disease. They found that a protein called STING becomes chemically altered in a way that keeps the brain’s immune system stuck in overdrive, harming the connections between nerve cells.

New Research Identifies Potential Target to Reduce Brain Inflammation in Alzheimer’s Disease

Share Post Share Email Scientists have identified a promising new therapeutic target that could help reduce the harmful brain inflammation associated with Alzheimer’s disease, according to new research from the United States. Researchers at the Scripps Research have discovered a molecular mechanism that appears to drive chronic inflammation in the brains of people living with Alzheimer’s disease. Their findings…
