Sd311-006 | Scientists May Have Found Agings Hidden Trigger for Brain Disease/a | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Quote: | Scientists have identified a molecular switch that may help explain why aging makes the brain more vulnerable to diseases such as ALS and Huntingtons. In worms, the protein EPS8 builds up with age and triggers signaling that encourages toxic proteins to clump together, damaging neurons and shortening lifespan. Reducing EPS8 activity prevented these harmful aggregates and preserved nerve function. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Sd311-007 | Two New Compounds Could Reveal Hidden Drivers of Alzheimers Disease/a | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Quote: | Vanderbilt researchers created the first selective compound designed to inhibit TAOK-1, a poorly understood protein connected to Alzheimers disease. They also discovered a second compound that activates the entire TAOK protein family, offering scientists an unexpected new research tool. Together, the compounds could reveal hidden disease mechanisms and point toward new treatment strategies. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Sd314-005Nearly Half of Dementia Cases May Be Linked to Risks You Can Change/aQuote: |
A persons dementia risk is shaped partly by factors that cannot be
altered, including age, gender and genetics. Other influences may be
modifiable, such as smoking, cardiovascular disease, high blood lipids,
physical activity, alcohol consumption, hearing loss and high blood
pressure.

| Sd315-002New Autism Therapy Shows Surprising Benefits Even in Adult Mice/aQuote: |
Researchers have uncovered a potential new way to treat autism spectrum
disorder (ASD) by restoring the function of an important brain
receptor. The study, led by Director Eunjoon Kim of the IBS Center for
Synaptic Brain Dysfunctions, focused on a glycine transporter known as
Slc6a20a/SLC6A20. The team found that reducing the activity of this
transporter could help restore NMDA receptor (NMDAR) function. These
receptors play a major role in communication between brain cells and
are essential for learning, memory, and other cognitive processes.

| Sd315-010Scientists Discover a Hidden Brain Shift That Begins Around Age 50/aQuote: |
Their analysis found that microglia, the brains main immune cells,
gradually decline from about age 50 to age 75. At the same time, they
appear to be replaced by cells with stronger inflammatory signals and
other traits similar to immune cells that originate in peripheral blood.
