Feeding the animals a high fiber diet reduced Alzheimer ’s-related frailty, including tremors. The gut houses the body’s largest population of immune cells. A new study from the Buck Institute has revealed that in Read More
Sleep may enhance the brain’s ability to remove harmful waste. Poor or disrupted sleep could raise dementia risk. The brain possesses its own system for removing waste, known as the glymphatic system, which is Read More
Signals are processed only if they reach the brain during brief receptive cycles. This timing mechanism explains how attention filters information and may inform therapies and brain-inspired technologies. It has long been recognized that the Read More
Scientists have uncovered how rogue DNA rings may help spark glioblastoma at its earliest stages. An international research team has shown that rogue rings of DNA that exist outside chromosomes, called extrachromosomal DNA, or ecDNA, Read More
Parasitic worms that infect moose can spread to livestock and other animals. A new antibody-based test can diagnose infections early and help control outbreaks. Summary A new antibody test offers an early detection method Read More
Scientists at Gladstone Institutes uncovered a surprising reason why dopamine-producing neurons, crucial for smooth body movements, die in Parkinson’s disease. In mice, when these neurons were kept overactive for weeks, they began to falter, Read More
Virginia Tech scientists are probing how mitochondrial stress and calcium overload may cause Alzheimer’s to strike memory circuits first, offering clues to the disease’s earliest breakdown. One of the first parts of the Read More
Researchers have discovered that brain cancer cells reprogram their sugar metabolism, a vulnerability that can be exploited in mice to impede tumor growth and enhance therapeutic outcomes. Glioblastomas are the most aggressive type of malignant Read More
The gastrointestinal tract is the biggest immune organ in mammals. The gut extends its influence all over the body through various links like the gut-liver Summary The gut is the largest immune organ, exerting body-wide Read More
