For over a century, Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been considered irreversible. Consequently, research has focused on disease ...

Alzheimer’s has long been considered irreversible, but new research challenges that assumption. Scientists discovered that severe drops in the brain’s energy supply help drive the disease—and ...

During development of the digestive system, a complex network of nerves forms around it, creating a "second brain" - the ...

Since its discovery, Alzheimer's disease has been considered irreversible. Consequently, research has focused on preventing ...

Researchers showed that a severe drop in NAD+—a core energy molecule—drives Alzheimer’s pathology in both human brains and mouse models.

Baylor College of Medicine’s Center for Precision Medicine Models has received a five-year, $10 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to continue its work using precision models to ...

Recent epic leaps in genetics have created a biodiversity library. As the genetic make-up of animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, and viruses has been mapped, researchers racing to develop solutions to ...

Deleting a gene called PTEN in certain brain cells disrupts the brain’s fear circuitry and triggers anxiety-like behavior in mice — key traits seen in autism. Researchers mapped how this genetic tweak ...

Out of these eight strains of mice, only the CAST mouse was susceptible to SARS-CoV-2, including beta, omicron and delta variants. The eight strains include A/J, B6J, CAST, 129S1, NSG, NZO, PWK, and ...
