Mice treated with the therapy had better cognitive function and similar patterns of gene expression to healthy models of the same age.

Researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine have developed a gene therapy for Alzheimer's disease that could help protect the brain from damage and preserve cognitive ...

Alzheimer's disease affects millions of people around the world and occurs when abnormal proteins build up in the brain, leading to the death of brain cells and declines in cognitive function and ...

By reprogramming brain cells, a new gene therapy approach for Alzheimer's developed by UC San Diego researchers could address the root cause of the disease to halt its progression.

Found in the Finnish population, a rare variant of the TYROBP gene significantly increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease, a new study led by the University of Eastern Finland shows. This gene ...

Found in the Finnish population, a rare variant of the TYROBP gene significantly increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease, a new study led by the University of Eastern Finland shows.

Genes that are linked to Alzheimer's disease have previously been found using genome-wide association studies (GWAS). These connect small changes in the sequences of different genes with a disease.

Sixteen years after tramiprosate flunked a phase 3 trial, Alzheon’s prodrug form of the molecule has joined the lengthy list of Alzheimer’s failures.

Gene Hackman was focused on staying fit by playing golf, doing yoga, and more before he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

During a press conference, authorities confirmed Gene Hackman suffered from advanced Alzheimer's disease before his tragic death.

Gene Hackman "was in very poor health" before to his death, which was caused by heart problems and advanced Alzheimer’s disease, officials revealed.
