Detecting Alzheimer’s damage before symptoms appear using a new blood test

Test also may identify neurodegeneration in other brain diseases, injuries A simple blood test reliably detects signs of brain damage in people on the path to developing Alzheimer’s disease – even before they show signs of confusion and memory loss, according to a new study from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and

Researchers activate repair program for nerve fibers

Releasing molecular brake allowed damaged neurons to regenerate Injuries to the spinal cord can cause paralysis and other permanent disabilities because severed nerve fibers do not regrow. Now, scientists of the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) have succeeded in releasing a molecular brake that prevents the regeneration of nerve connections. Treatment of mice with

Rapamycin: limited anti-aging effects

Substance makes mice live longer, but hardly slows down the aging process The drug rapamycin is known to increase lifespan in mice. Whether rapamycin slows down aging, however, remains unclear. A team of researchers from the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) and the Helmholtz Zentrum München has now found that rapamycin extends lifespan – but its

Extra Fuel Keeps You From Having to Walk Home When You Run Out of Gas

Extra Fuel is a convenient way to carry a half gallon of fuel that won’t accidentally blow up. Running out of gas is never fun and usually means either calling for roadside assistance or walking to the nearest gas station. It’s not terribly cheap – at $24.99 a half gallon it’s definitely only for emergencies,
