A multitude of genes have been linked to the development of Alzheimer's disease. Specifically how those genes might influence the progression of neurodegeneration remains something of a black box ...

Researchers have linked disease-related proteins and genes to identify specific cellular pathways responsible for Alzheimer's genesis and progression. The proteins were gathered from cerebrospinal ...

Fighting Alzheimer’s disease is a race against time. By the time most patients are diagnosed and treated, their cognitive symptoms have already advanced significantly. New research, though, pinpoints ...

Scientists at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have uncovered a non-invasive method to boost the brain’s natural waste drainage system—a discovery that they suggest could open new avenues for ...

VIRTUAL MEETING (CST), November 22, 2020 -- Swelling is one of the most dangerous and immediate consequences of a brain injury or stroke. Doctors have long known about the dangers of swelling, which ...

Swelling is one of the most dangerous and immediate consequences of a brain injury or stroke. Doctors have long known about the dangers of swelling, which has traditionally been blamed on ruptured ...

A new study definitively reveals the existence of a system that had been theorized to clear metabolic wastes in the human brain. The study uses imaging in neurosurgery patients to show how brain's ...

Scientists have long wondered about the network of pathways in the brain that is believed to clear metabolic wastes. Wastes include proteins such as amyloid and tau, which have been shown to form ...

Radboudumc researchers used metabolomics to study cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from tuberculous meningitis patients in Vietnam and Indonesia, with long-standing collaborators from Bandung and ...
