A genetic disorder leads to an increase in bioactive lipids in the brain, which contributes to an imbalance between excitation and inhibition in the neuronal circuits and favors mental disorders. However, treatment with an enzyme inhibitor that prevents the activation of these lipids can restore the balance and alleviate symptoms. This is the result of […]
Why Nightmares and Daydreams Could be Early Warning Signs of an Autoimmune Disease
An increase in nightmares and hallucinations – or daydreaming – could herald the onset of autoimmune diseases such as lupus, according to an international team led by researchers from the University of Cambridge and King’s College London. The researchers argue that there needs to be better recognition that these types of mental and neurological symptoms […]
Sleep Apnea Can Impair Memory
Poor sleep quality can have a negative impact on memory. Research has already shown that fluctuations in nightly sleep duration and reduced sleep quality impair older adults’ ability to recall information about past events. It has been known for decades that important things happen during sleep in terms of consolidating memory and strengthening recollections. Current […]
Researchers Target Neurogenesis in a New Approach to Treating Parkinson’s Disease
Researchers have found a way to better control the preclinical generation of key neurons that are damaged in Parkinson’s disease, revealing a new approach to a disease for which there is no cure and few effective treatments. Efficient Method: Stimulating Stem Cell Differentiation to Produce Neurons in the Midbrain Parkinson’s disease is the second most […]
Study Shows High Prevalence of Hidden Brain Changes in People With Heart Disease
A new analysis involving more than 13,000 people has found that changes to blood vessels in the brain that can increase the risk of stroke and dementia are common in people with a range of heart conditions, regardless of whether they have already had a stroke. The new research, published in Neurology®, the medical journal […]
