Alzheimer's drug prescribed off-label could pose risk for some





















Image Source: NEWDRUGAPPROVALS

Donepezil, a medication that is approved to treat people with Alzheimer's disease, should not be prescribed for people with mild cognitive impairment without a genetic test. UCLA School of Nursing researchers discovered that for people who carry a specific genetic variation -- the K-variant of butyrylcholinesterase, or BChE-K -- donezpezil could accelerate cognitive decline.

Alzheimer's disease: Molecular study clarifies potential link to high blood sugar





























A new molecular study reveals for the first time that high blood sugar or glucose damages an important enzyme that is involved with how the immune system responds in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. The researchers say the findings will help map the progression of the devastating disease to better identify those at risk and perhaps find new ways to treat or prevent it.

Research finds distinctive language deficits in people with mild cognitive impairment, a precursor to dementia

Rambling and long-winded anecdotes could be an early sign of Alzheimer’s disease, according to research that suggests subtle changes in speech style occur years before the more serious mental decline takes hold.

FOR DECADES, Alzheimer’s disease research has focused on neurons. That’s logical: after all, it’s our brain cells that become diseased, causing a decline in our memory and ability to think. But new research from Li- Tsai’s lab suggests the immune system may also play a role in Alzheimer’s.

Want to Prevent Alzheimer’s? Eat Grapes!
































Image Source: CURIOUSWINES

Word has spread through the grapevine of a new study by researchers at UCLA who found that consuming grapes twice a day for 6 months protected against a significant metabolic decline in Alzheimer-related areas of the brain in patients with early memory decline. Scientists have known for some time that low metabolic activity in these areas of the brain is a hallmark of early-stage Alzheimer's disease. Results from this randomized, controlled study show that a grape-enriched diet protected against the decline of metabolic activity.
