Recently, the SORL1 gene has received increased attention since variations in this gene have been associated with both early-and late-onset Alzheimer\u2019s. However, little is known about how damage to SORL1 leads to disease.<\/p>\n<p>Using stem cells from patients with Alzheimer\u2019s, investigators from Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital found that loss of normal SORL1 function leads to a reduction in two key proteins known to be involved in Alzheimer\u2019s and which play an essential role in the neurons of healthy individuals.<\/p>\n<p>Their results, published in Cell Reports, suggest a potential strategy for Alzheimer\u2019s disease treatment, especially for patients not responsive to existing therapies.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>By BWH Communications.<\/p>\n<p>Date August 22, 2023 August 22, 2023<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"> <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/lifeboat.com\/blog\/2023\/10\/molecular-road-to-alzheimers-leads-to-new-treatment-strategy\">Continue reading \u201c\u2018Molecular road\u2019 to Alzheimer\u2019s leads to new treatment strategy\u201d | &gt;<\/a><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Repost, but if you know someone\u2019s dealing with such, the information can help you and them.
