Steps Forward: Immunoassays for cryptic HDGFL2 flag TDP-43 proteinopathy in diverse disorders. Companies have moved a PET ligand into Phase 1 trials.
Sensory Stimulation Systems, and GENUS, refer to a noninvasive procedure, i.e., a "digital therapeutic," being developed by Cognito Therapeutics. The company developed a wearable GammaSense ...
If enhancing memory with light and sound seems futuristic, then welcome to the future. Or so some scientists say. Results from four early stage clinical trials on mild Alzheimer’s disease were ...
The Alzheimer’s field begins 2021 with a glimmer of good news: Donanemab, a monoclonal antibody that recognizes a pyroglutamated form of Aβ, slowed cognitive decline in people with early AD. That was ...
This database is a repository of normal genetic variability, designed to be a tool for researchers who study neurodegenerative disease. It contains whole-exome sequencing results from nearly 500 ...
Biogen’s hopes for a quick regulatory approval of its anti-Aβ antibody aducanumab may be dimming. An advisory panel convened by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration was unimpressed by the evidence ...
After years of fits and starts, anti-amyloid immunotherapies are finally hitting their target effectively. At least four drugs have now demonstrated the ability to clear plaques from the brain: ...
Lecanemab binds protofibrils more tightly than fibrils, perhaps explaining lower ARIA rate. Use of plasma biomarkers brings down trial screening cost. Lecanemab has been selected for the first amyloid ...
Michelle Mielke at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, noted that women’s higher risk is likely to have multiple causes. “Hormones are a contributor, but there are a lot of other ...
Many people on aducanumab (trade name Aduhelm) develop the amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) that mark fluid retention and microhemorrhages in the brain. In the November 22 JAMA Neurology, ...
In the U.S., 12 lifestyle factors explain 41 percent of dementia cases. Obesity, hypertension, and physical inactivity accounted for half the modifiable risk. Preventable dementia is more common in ...
