Early onset Alzheimer’s disease is Alzheimer’s disease that starts before age 65. It’s rare under age 30 and more commonly affects people ages 50 and over. Early detection and treatment can ...

Mertes Professor of Medicinal Chemistry, University of Kansas, and colleagues have previously shown that mutations found in early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) prevent γ-secretase from ...

Scientists used high-resolution 3D X-ray imaging to uncover major structural and immune changes in the gut of Alzheimer's disease models, suggesting a potential early biomarker.

Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have devised a biomarker test that can spot small amounts of clumping tau protein ...

No cure has been found for Alzheimer’s disease, which isn’t considered a preventable condition. Anti-inflammatory diets may help slow the progression of the disease and also reduce the risk of ...

A study of rare familial genetic mutations linked to early-onset dementia supports the idea that stalled protein processing contributes to Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer’s disease is likely ...
