Genetic Protection from Alzheimer’s: Study Finds Abundance of “Protective” Alleles in Centenarians

Abundance of “protective” alleles… Genetic protection from the risk of Alzheimer’s disease Cognitively healthy centenarians are genetically protected against Alzheimer’s disease One study showed that centenarians who maintain cognitive health are genetically protected from the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. A research team from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in the Netherlands has identified 86 single […]

Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors Reduce Alzheimer’s Disease Risk: Study Findings

The Endotoxin Hypothesis: Exploring the Link Between Gut Health and Alzheimer’s Disease

Patients with Alzheimer’s disease have higher levels of LPS in their blood and brain than normal people. Outlook for potential treatments, including changes to the gut microbiome and reduction of intestinal leakage. The endotoxin hypothesis in Alzheimer’s disease The hypothesis has been put forward that intestinal dysfunction affects the human blood and brain, causing Alzheimer’s […]
