A study published Wednesday in Nature Neuroscience sheds light into how amyloid-beta and tau proteins impact brain activity ...

Researchers evidence suggests it’s the lessening of amyloid-beta in the brain that is behind cognitive decline.

The big unknown has been exactly how that occurs. According to the most widely adopted hypothesis, the amyloid beta buildup disrupts cell-to-cell communication and activates immune cells in a process ...

The technology – called Antibody Transport Vehicle (ATV): Amyloid beta – can be used to help amyloid-targeting drugs cross the blood brain barrier (BBB) more effectively, say the partners.

Glial cells in the brain also produce amyloid beta. Not only neurons build the protein amyloid beta (blue), which clumps together and forms harmful plaques in Alzheimer’s disease: Special glial ...

Researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine have made an important discovery that connects high sugar intake to ...

A new study published in the journal Brain reveals that increasing levels of a key brain protein might help slow cognitive ...

A recent study suggests that increasing the protein amyloid beta (Aß42) in the brain could help slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease.Traditionally, the buildup of ...

A main theory behind the cause of Alzheimer’s disease is the build-up of the protein amyloid-beta in the brain. Researchers from the University of Cincinnati provide evidence suggesting it’s ...
