Artificial intelligence learns to recognize subtle biochemical features of γ-secretase substrates. Screening potential transmembrane proteins identifies 250 substrates, including 160 novel ones. These ...
With aging, fibrinogen transcytosed via caveolin-1 into the perivascular space, exacerbating Aβ buildup. Elevated fibrinogen disrupted aquaporin-4 function. Depleting fibrinogen rescued CAA, ...
Scientists trained three machine-learning algorithms to find variants that distinguish AD cases from controls among more than 40,000 European AD Biobank samples. ML found as many genome-wide ...
Eight months after Eli Lilly reported that a more gradual titration for donanemab nearly halved the risk of ARIA-E, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has given the modification the green light.
Discover a comprehensive list of brain banks worldwide, facilitating Alzheimer's and Parkinson's research on Alzforum.
In a Phase 2 trial, donanemab completely cleared plaque in two-thirds of participants. Their cognitive decline slowed by a third, meeting the primary endpoint. The treatment appeared to nudge down ...
Biogen’s hopes for a quick regulatory approval of its anti-Aβ antibody aducanumab may be dimming. An advisory panel convened by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration was unimpressed by the evidence ...
Lecanemab binds protofibrils more tightly than fibrils, perhaps explaining lower ARIA rate. Use of plasma biomarkers brings down trial screening cost. Lecanemab has been selected for the first amyloid ...
Scientists from academia, pharmaceutical companies, and healthcare analysis firms reached no consensus on a threshold for meaningfulness, but broadly agreed that meaningfulness should be determined ...
Eisai and Biogen yesterday announced positive topline results from the Phase 3 Clarity trial of their anti-amyloid antibody lecanemab. The drug slowed decline on the primary endpoint, CDR-SB, by 27 ...
Brain Shuttle Sneaks Gantenerumab Past the Blood-Brain Barrier Initially, gantenerumab was nearly scuttled when low doses failed to budge endpoints in the Phase 3 Scarlet RoAD and Marguerite RoAD ...
Sasner sat down with Alzforum to go over what models are available now, which ones are coming, and how they could be used. The new mouse lines are the product of two different initiatives: NIA’s Model ...
