Scientists funded by the National Institutes of Health have discovered a potential strategy for developing treatments to stem the disease process in Alzheimer’s disease. It’s based on unclogging removal of toxic debris that accumulates in patients’ brains, by blocking activity of a little-known regulator protein called CD33

The plaques appear first, and then the tangles, giving the impression that one causes the other. However, evidence of this is scant, and scientists believe finding out precisely how these events are linked, will lead to new treatments to slow the relentless progress of this devastating brain-wasting disease.
