New Study Might Lead to New Therapeutic Approach for Treating Alzheimer’s Disease
Researchers have used a new CRISPR technology that enables them to control these microglia cells. This, according to the team, can lead to a new approach to the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The team geared up to detect the genes that were responsible for specific states of the microglial activity. With this, they could switch the genes on and ...

Neural ‘Poisonous Flowers’ Could Be the Primary Cause of Alzheimer’s Disease, Says New Study
New study, conducted on mice, suggests that “poisonous flowers” bulging with the cellular debris could be the main cause of Alzheimer's Disease. Researchers said their findings suggest that neurons containing these ‘poisonous flowers’ could be the ‘principal source’ of toxic amyloid plaques.

Parkinson’s Disease Might Find Potential Treatment in These Designer Neurons
A new research suggests potential treatment for Parkinson's disease which involves non-neuronal cells and their transformation. Once they change into neurons, they can stay in the brain and do the regular functions like linking to other nerve cells making the neural tissue, forming synapses, and dispensing dopamine. These cells would help repair th...
