Using advanced microscopy techniques that were developed through an NIA and National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) collaboration, NIA funded researchers found that when a signaling pathway called ApoER2-Dab1 malfunctions in human brain neurons, the neurons accumulate phosphorylated tau and die during the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease. Learn more about the data and why it suggests that the destabilization of the ApoER2-Dab1 pathway is a plausible, alternative explanation for why specific neurons degenerate in Alzheimer’s disease: https://lnkd.in/ehyxic7q #NIAFunded #NIHAging #ApoER2 #Neurons #AlzheimersDisease

This is a really interesting read. TL:DR COVID-19 is able to infect dopamine neurons, which may be contributing to long COVID symptoms (such as brain fog and depression). The infected neurons go into a state where they don't grow or reproduce. It will be interesting to see if this causes long term damage that increases the chances of patients later developing neurodegenerative diseases connected to the dopamine pathway, such as Parkinson's Disease, the rates of which are already on the rise due to other factors.

Regular exercise is a potent catalyst for neurogenesis, promoting the birth of new brain cells. Engaging in challenging cognitive activities, like puzzles or learning a new skill, stimulates mental plasticity. Adequate sleep is equally vital, as it enhances memory consolidation and supports overall brain health. This trio— 1) Physical activity, 2) Mental challenges, and 3) Sufficient sleep Creates an optimal environment for the generation of new neurons. Incorporating these habits into your routine not only fosters brain cell growth but also contributes to cognitive resilience and long-term brain function. #STIMULATE #NEW #BRAIN #CELLGROWTH

Absolutely unconscionable that this is where we are at in our response. Enough journal article writing. We have long known of CNS reservoir persistence, including the work of Dr. Daniel Chertow in December, 2021. He observed persistence in the basal ganglia, to which the substantia nigra belongs. So, this comes as no surprise. We have long known that every cell type that constitutes the CNS reservoir of those living with HIV is productively infected by SARS-Cov-2: perivascular macrophages, the choroid plexus, pericytes, astrocytes, and microglia. The CNS reservoir is expanding on a daily basis relying upon the same mechanism observed in HIV, the Tunneling Nanotube, implicated by Ana Pepe in 2022. Our intellectual capital’s immune competence and cognition is being destroyed on a daily basis, for which there will be no recovery. Stop writing. Take action. Disgusting and depraved.

🌌 The Journey of SCN8A Discovery: Did You Know? 🌌 In 2005, Dr. Miriam Meisler discovered the SCN8A gene was a sodium channel, marking a new era in neurological research. 🧬 She then initiated an extensive study and screened 151 individuals, searching for links between SCN8A mutations and neurological disorders. Among them, a 9-year-old boy was identified, becoming the first known patient with SCN8A, causing ataxia and intellectual disabilities, but not epilepsy. This landmark finding by Dr. Miriam H. Meisler and her team at the University of Michigan definitively linked the gene's impact to neurological health. Fast forward to 2011, when the journey took a deeply personal turn. Dr. Hammer, driven by his daughter Shay's struggle with epilepsy and his desire to know, “Was there anyone else like my daughter?” discovered Shay’s SCN8A mutation. This was more than a scientific discovery, it was a father's quest to understand what was afflicting his child, and after Shay’s passing, what drove Michael to dedicate his life to helping those with SCN8A that came after Shay. The moment Dr. Hammer reached out to Dr. Meisler to share his discovery marked a pivotal point in SCN8A research, connecting personal stories with scientific endeavor and beginning the collaboration for a cure. Listen as Dr. Meisler describes the call. 📞“I’ve been waiting for this call for 20 years!” #SCN8A #SCN8AAwareness #CureSCN8A #CollaboratingForACure #SCN8AStrong Check out the culmination of all this SCN8A science and research at scn8aalliance.org/research

The power of light and sound...🤯 "MIT researchers have now shown that a noninvasive treatment, which stimulates gamma frequency brain waves, may hold promise for treating chemo brain. In a study of mice, they found that daily exposure to light and sound with a frequency of 40 hertz protected brain cells from chemotherapy-induced damage. The treatment also helped to prevent memory loss and impairment of other cognitive functions." #ResearchInnovation #GammaWaves #ChemoBrainTreatment #MITResearch https://lnkd.in/gxxAezHk
