Most neurons that die in Alzheimer’s disease do not simply starve or get smothered by amyloid plaques. According to a study ...

Researchers at LMU have developed a human cell model that replicates key mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases - with ...

A cellular-resolution map of prenatal brain development in Down syndrome reveals disrupted neuron production timing and altered cell types.

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

A newly identified trigger of brain inflammation could offer a fresh target for slowing Alzheimer’s progression.

Researchers at LMU Munich have developed the first human cell model to accurately mimic the adult brain's tau protein mutations linked to Alzheimer's and other dementias. The model overcomes ...

In a powerful fusion of AI and neuroscience, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and at the Allen Institute have created one of the most detailed maps of the mouse brain ...

STING" molecular switch drives Alzheimer's brain inflammation. Blocking this switch protects synapses in new study.
