Scientists reprogram brain immune cells to combat Alzheimer's disease, reducing plaques and improving memory in models
Researchers have identified a molecule, OLE, that can 'reprogram' microglia, the brain's immune cells, to regain their protective functions against Alzheimer's disease. In animal studies, this treatment reduced toxic beta-amyloid plaque buildup and improved memory, offering a promising new therapeutic approach.
