Alzheimer’s disease is the main cause of dementia and current therapeutic strategies cannot prevent, slow down or cure the pathology. The disease is characterized by memory loss, caused by the degeneration and death of neuronal cells in several regions of the brain, including the hippocampus. Researchers have identified a small molecule that can be used to rejuvenate the brain and counteract the memory loss.

Researchers have identified 13 variants of genes connected to Alzheimer’s disease that are new to scientists. In a study published in Alzheimer’s & Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer’s Association, the researchers report how they sequenced whole genomes of people in more than 600 families with individuals who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and searched for rare versions of genes.
