Mouse neurons show different DNA changes in aging and disease

An experiment in mouse neurons found shared early DNA changes in aging and brain-disease models, but differences in which organizational features remained.An experiment in mouse neurons found shared early DNA changes in aging and brain-disease models, but differences in which organizational features remained.

Leukemia drug linked to lower neurodegenerative disease risk

People starting nilotinib, a leukemia drug, had a hazard ratio of 0.37 for neurodegenerative disease diagnosis or death versus matched people without chronic myeloid…People starting nilotinib, a leukemia drug, had a hazard ratio of 0.37 for neurodegenerative disease diagnosis or death versus matched people without chronic myeloid leukemia.

Standard lab tools detect Alzheimer's markers in blood

In 101 people, the test identified brain amyloid build-up from blood samples with an area under the curve of 0.839, matching established methods.In 101 people, the test identified brain amyloid build-up from blood samples with an area under the curve of 0.839, matching established methods.
