Evidence date ·How tau aggregates and altered brain support cells create different Alzheimer’s targets
Review or Meta-AnalysisTracked over timeA 2023 review compares removing senescent brain cells, quieting inflammatory signals, and targeting tau aggregates while separating human evidence from model findings.
-
Evidence date ·Could aging brain support cells help turn pathology into memory loss?
Review or Meta-AnalysisTracked over timeA 2023 perspective links aging, Alzheimer’s pathology and senescent glia, comparing mouse interventions with human tissue clues while keeping treatment unproven.
-
Evidence date ·Could injured brain-support cells help drive later cognitive decline?
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2023 review asks whether stressed brain-support cells sustain inflammation after injury, drawing on human tissue and mouse studies.
-
Evidence date ·Could brain immune and support cells link cannabinoid signaling to memory in Alzheimer’s models?
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2023 review of 26 rodent studies found better memory-task performance with cannabinoid agonists, but the biological explanation remains uncertain.
-
Evidence date ·What combined approaches can show about cognitive decline
Review or Meta-AnalysisA January 2023 review contrasts prevention-oriented and impairment-focused examples and explains what cognitive tests and partner reports measure.
-
Evidence date ·How fluid moving around brain vessels connects to aging and Alzheimer’s disease
Review or Meta-AnalysisA January 2023 review traces brain-fluid routes, aquaporin-4 placement and human imaging, showing why dementia links remain biologically plausible but unproven.
-
Evidence date ·How astrocytes, the brain’s support cells, might help protect neurons in Alzheimer’s
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review links astrocyte control of glutamate and amyloid handling to possible Alzheimer’s treatments, while cell and mouse results remain unproven in patients.
-
Evidence date ·Why one frontal brain region matters for mood during perimenopause
Peer-Reviewed PaperA 2022 scan study compared GABA+ and glutamate in 38 healthy women, finding no clear difference in one frontal region and no explanation for depression risk.
-
Evidence date ·How Alzheimer’s disrupts the brain’s daily timing system
Peer-Reviewed PaperA 2022 review links Alzheimer’s with disrupted daily rhythms and explains why melatonin’s effects in animals and cells do not establish benefits for patients.

Evidence date ·Sleep loss, Alzheimer’s and what turmeric’s curcumin can show
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review compares animal findings with a human cognitive study and explains how absorption and brain delivery shape curcumin’s promise.
