Disabling the notorious APOE4 gene might protect against the disease, according to research from Michael Greicius and team. Image news | Aug 24 2023 Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience Blood Cells Mutated in Old Age Protect Against Alzheimer’s Disease Pathologist Siddhartha Jaiswal discovers a surprising twist to our biology: age-related mutations that increase the risk of blood disease also protect against brain disease. Image news | Aug 17 2023 Stanford Medicine Stanford Medicine-led research identifies gene ‘fingerprint’ for brain aging A study in mice finds that white matter — the tissue that transmits messages around the brain — shows the greatest changes as the animals age. Image news | Jul 29 2022 Scope Blog Can we rejuvenate aging brains? Tony Wyss-Coray and colleagues have turned up substances in blood that can accelerate or slow down the brain-aging clock. They've identified proteins on blood-vessel surfaces through which some of these molecules can act on the brain, despite the existenc Image news | May 31 2022 Stanford Medicine A rare mutation protects against Alzheimer's disease, Stanford-led research find... An international collaboration led by Michael Greicius, MD, professor of neurology at Stanford Medicine, has found a rare mutation that protects against Alzheimer’s in individuals who are genetically predisposed to the disease. Image news | May 25 2022 Wu Tsai Neuro Young cerebrospinal fluid may hold keys to healthy brain aging With a new study published in Nature, Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute researchers are helping to show that the cerebrospinal fluid that bathes our brains holds clues to healthy brain aging. Image news | May 25 2022 Wu Tsai Neuro Q&A: How the aging immune system impacts brain health Katrin Andreasson discusses how immune cells can cause harmful brain inflammation and contribute to the development of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s disease.
