New research reveals that clinical depression often precedes Parkinson’s and Lewy body dementia by years, serving as a biological indicator of early neurodegenerative brain changes rather than mere psychological distress.
A 20-year NIH-funded randomized trial found "speed of processing" cognitive training significantly reduced dementia risk by 25% in older adults, including Alzheimer's, making it the only intervention to show such long-term protective effects.
A study using hair samples spanning a century uncovered how environmental regulations, particularly the EPA's, dramatically reduced childhood lead exposure from sources like leaded gas. This significantly improved public health, reversing historical impacts like reduced IQ and psychological issues.
MIT researchers are using noninvasive transcranial focused ultrasound to stimulate deep brain regions, aiming to identify the neural circuits that generate conscious experience and solve the 'hard problem' of the mind.
Explore cutting-edge hair loss treatments from Korea and the US, including exosome therapy, stem cell research, and personalized science-backed solutions like light therapy and supplements.
Cancer cells package immunosuppressive PD-L1 into sEVs via UBL3, hindering immunotherapy. Researchers found widely used statins can block this process, offering a new strategy to enhance immune checkpoint therapies by reducing circulating immunosuppressive PD-L1.
New research suggests low-dose THC combined with an anti-inflammatory medicine could protect memory and reduce mental retardation in Alzheimer's, a disease affecting millions and previously resistant to COX-2 preventions, offering a faster potential therapy.
