Memories are thought to be stored in sparse groups of neurons called engrams. These are the cells that switch on during learning and can later switch on again during recall. In physiological aging and ...

Aging doesn’t have to mean losing your past. Scientists have found a way to "reprogram" specific memory-holding neurons, restoring youthful learning and recall in mice.

(CN) — Anyone who has witnessed Alzheimer’s disease firsthand knows its devastating effects on health and connection to loved ones. As the most common cause of dementia, the neurodegenerative disease ...

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — A molecule identified and synthesized by UCLA Health researchers was shown to restore cognitive functions in mice with symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease by basically giving the ...

In a stunning scientific discovery, researchers have found that a pair of drugs can not only slow down Alzheimer’s disease but actually reverse it and restore memory in mice. And the best part of all?

Researchers have found that a natural aging-related molecule can repair key memory processes affected by Alzheimer’s disease. The compound improves communication between brain cells and restores early ...

Kauwe, Pareja-Navarro et al. identify a KIBRA-dependent mechanism to repair the plasticity at synapses that is dysregulated in neurons underlying the loss of memory in tauopathy. The art depicts the ...

In a new study, a molecule identified and synthesized by UCLA Health researchers was shown to restore cognifitive functions in mice with Alzheimer’s disease symptoms. The compound effectively ...

Here's good news for anyone worried about their aging brain: Studies have shown that almost half of people who develop mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are able to regain normal cognitive skills, ...

In the search for new therapies, a study has developed a molecule that restores lost cognitive function in mice. The study authors suggest that, if similar results are seen in people, this could be ...

A Yale School of Public Health study has found that older persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a common type of memory loss, were 30% more likely to regain normal cognition if they had taken ...
