Half as many diagnosed with depression, a delayed manifestation of Parkinson’s, a reduced risk of developing vascular dementia - but not Alzheimer’s. These connections were discovered by researchers when they compared 200 000 people who had participated in a long-distance cross-country ski race between 1989 and 2010 with a matched cohort of the general population. The results of the population reg

Neuroscientists at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new technology that engineers the shell of a virus to deliver gene therapy to the exact cell type in the body that needs to be treated. The researchers believe that the new technology can be likened to dramatically accelerating evolution from millions of years to weeks.Read the full article here

To understand what happens in the brain when Alzheimer's disease develops, researchers need to be able to study the molecular structures in the neurons affected by Alzheimer's disease. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have tested a new imaging method for this purpose. The research is published in the journal Advanced Science.Read the full article here

Stem cell researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new research model of the early embryonic brain. The aim of the model is to study the very earliest stages of brain to understand how different regions in the brain are formed during embryonic development. With this new insight, researchers hope to be able to produce different types of neural cells for the treatment of neurologica

Toxic versions of the protein tau are believed to cause death of neurons of the brain in Alzheimer’s disease. A new study published in Nature Communications shows that the spread of toxic tau in the human brain in elderly individuals may occur via connected neurons. The researchers could see that beta-amyloid facilitates the spread of toxic tau.Read the full article here

From the coordinator:As we approach Midsommar, we in MultiPark can reflect on the extraordinary last few months and hope that our environment can return back more to meetings, seminars and productive exchanges after the summer. Although neurodegenerative diseases were less in the news because of Covid-19, people with Parkinson and Alzheimer’s diseases were however more affected by the virus. Our w

A new blood test demonstrated remarkable promise in discriminating between persons with and without Alzheimer’s disease and in persons at known genetic risk may be able to detect the disease as early as 20 years before the onset of cognitive impairment, according to a large international study published today in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and simultaneously presented at

Around 20,000 people have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in Sweden. Today, there is no imaging method of changes in the brain that are believed to cause the disease. Researchers at Skåne University Hospital and Lund University have received nearly SEK 7 million from the Michael J Fox Foundation to develop an imaging technique that can more accurately detect and track the development of Pa

Aducanumab was compared, in a blinded study, to three clinical-stage antibodies using chemical kinetics. The publication describes the use of chemical kinetic analysis to assess the mechanisms of action of four clinical stage anti-Aβ antibodies: aducanumab (Biogen), gantenerumab (Roche), bapineuzumab (Elan) and solanezumab (Eli Lilly). The results provide unique insights into potential correlation

A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that validated biomarkers can reveal an individual’s risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. Using a model that combines the levels of two specific proteins in the blood of those with mild memory impairment, the researchers are able to predict the risk of developing Alzheimer’s. The researchers have also developed an app that doctors can use to give

The brain has its own cleaning system that removes harmful substances while we sleep and protects it from diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. Neuroscientists at Lund University in Sweden have now imaged the cleaning system in 3D, indicating that it is substantially more developed than previously thought. Read the full article here.
