In the search for answers about Alzheimer’s disease, researchers are taking a close look at the immune system of the brain. A new study uncovers how a key immune cell, called a microglia, might be the ...

Researchers say they have found that certain immune cells play a role in the recovery of brain functions from disease-induced ...

The brain contains many cell types, from the prominent neurons to the lesser-known microglia. The latter are integral to the brain's immune system and play a crucial role as the brain's cleanup crew.

Researchers have unraveled how immune cells called microglia can transform and drive harmful processes like neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease. The study also integrates drug databases with real ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising overlap between cancer genetics and Alzheimer’s disease, involving mutations in the ...

Researchers have identified that microglia first help spread Alzheimer’s disease pathology across the brain and then activate to limit its neurodegenerative effects. Researchers from the VIB-KU Leuven ...

Alzheimer's disease and other dementias impact approximately 55 million people worldwide, including 7.2 million cases in the ...
