Amyloid, a protein that builds up in the brain and forms plaques that affect cognitive function, is one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The findings were published in JAMA ...

Alzheimer’s disease is a degenerative neurological condition that is known for its debilitating symptoms, such as memory loss ...

A research team from the Institut de Neurociències of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (INc-UAB) has discovered that the two key pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's—tau protein and beta ...

Gantenerumab helps eliminate one of the neurological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s, called amyloid plaques. For some participants, gantenerumab reduced their risk of developing the disease by more ...

New research has established a link between a specific type of body fat and the brain proteins that are hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease. The type of fat is especially common for people in ...

Reiman said further research is needed into the underlying role of APOE on hallmarks of the disease, including beta-amyloid plaques and tau tangles found in Alzheimer's patients. The Christchurch ...

The test works by measuring proteins beta-amyloid and p-tau217, which are believed to be hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer's is a degenerative brain disease that is caused by complex ...

The tests indicate the presence of sticky amyloid plaques and tangled fibers called tau in the brain — the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s. Until recently, finding these signs of the disease has ...

New blood tests are set to change how Alzheimer's is diagnosed and treated by offering an easy way to see if patients have amyloid plaques and tau tangles in their brains — hallmarks of the disease.

Its mouthful of a name — Lumipulse G pTau217/ß-Amyloid 1-42 Plasma Ratio — describes what the test measures: levels of two proteins, amyloid and tau, that are hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease.

The Early Findings Research in rodents has largely shown that these types of diabetes and obesity drugs, which mimic metabolic hormones, can improve several hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease in ...

A research team has discovered that the two key pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's -- tau protein and beta-amyloid -- affect brain circuits in distinct yet synergistic ways, particularly those ...
