Agent clears toxic proteins and improves cognition in neurodegeneration models

Researchers have found cell receptors abnormally overexpressed in post-mortem brains of those with Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, and that they can be inhibited in animal models to clear toxic protein buildup, reduce brain inflammation, and improve cognitive performance. These dual findings, presented by Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC) researchers at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference...
