Artificial intelligence learns to recognize subtle biochemical features of γ-secretase substrates. Screening potential transmembrane proteins identifies 250 substrates, including 160 novel ones. These ...

In Alzheimer’s disease, some microglia gather around plaques, while others seem aloof, opting to keep their distance. In the July 14 Nature Neuroscience, scientists led by Marco Prinz at the ...

Eight months after Eli Lilly reported that a more gradual titration for donanemab nearly halved the risk of ARIA-E, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has given the modification the green light.

Why do some people age rapidly while others maintain their health well into their 80s and 90s? A new study suggests that maintaining “youthful” organs may be key. Scientists led by Tony Wyss-Coray at ...

κWhen microglia wind up with a belly full of lipid droplets, it’s a sign that the cells are rallying, perhaps in vain, to a neurodegenerative threat. But according to a study published July 10 in Cell ...

Dozens of rodents have been generated that model various aspects of ALS, like motor impairment or degeneration of motor neurons. No model recapitulates the human disease perfectly. By organizing ...

Thanks to cryo-electron microscopy, scientists have solved the structure of amyloid and tau fibrils—the hallmark protein pathologies of Alzheimer’s disease, and at the atomic level. As for Aβ42, they ...

Alzheimer’s disease damages myelin, but exactly what it does to this insulating material remains somewhat mysterious. In the June 13 Nature Neuroscience, scientists led by Jaime Grutzendler at Yale ...

While biomarkers have transformed Alzheimer’s research, much work remains to be done to develop these important tools for other neurodegenerative diseases, not to mention for the concurrent ...
