A brain bleed and subsequent brain surgery many decades ago may have led to cognitive impairment in the former president.

The team focused on Aβ42, a form of the amyloid beta with 42 amino acids that is commonly found in people with Alzheimer's disease. The researchers used three techniques in their work.

The Lumipulse G pTau217/ß-Amyloid 1-42 Plasma Ratio is the first blood test aiding Alzheimer's diagnosis by detecting amyloid plaques, offering a less invasive alternative to PET scans. The test ...

The Lumipulse G pTau217/Beta-Amyloid 1-42 Plasma Ratio is for the early detection of amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer’s disease in symptomatic adults 55 years and older.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the Lumipulse G pTau217/ß-Amyloid 1-42 Plasma Ratio blood test for early detection of amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer disease (AD) in ...

Boosting a brain protein called hevin improved memory in mice with Alzheimer’s—even without removing the disease’s hallmark plaques. #medindia #neuroplasticity #cognitivehealth’ Advertisement ...

For three decades University College London neurogeneticist John Hardy and like-minded scholars have been so dominant in promoting the theory that amyloid-beta plaques are the root cause of ...

Anti-amyloid treatments target these amyloid plaques. They are monoclonal antibodies (synthesized proteins) that attach themselves to beta-amyloid, marking them for removal by your immune system.

An estimated 60% of people have amyloid plaques in their brains by the end of their lifespans, but only one-fifth of amyloid-positive individuals will develop dementia, according to Alberto J ...

Amyloid beta is one of the toxic proteins that builds up in clumps or "aggregates" in the brains of people affected by Alzheimer's. Several drugs targeting the protein have been tested in trials ...

Panelists discuss how amyloid-targeting therapies for Alzheimer disease represent a breakthrough drug class that works by binding to and removing beta-amyloid plaques through various mechanisms ...
