Education can act as a powerful "cognitive reserve" in mitigating genetic risks for Alzheimer's. Higher education slowed cognitive decline even among those carrying high-risk mutations.

A Colombian man is only the second patient identified with the miraculous ability to defy the devastating Alzheimer’s gene, an international team of scientists report in the journal Nature Medicine.

Doctors hope the two known cases will allow researchers to develop new treatments to protect other people with Alzheimer’s disease. https://t.co/4LWLnVKK2H

Variantes del gen PSEN1 están relacionadas con la enf. Alzhéimer. No obstante, se han identificado variantes protectoras en los genes APOE y RELN que "anularían" la predisposición a Alzhéimer marcada por PSEN1 y evitarían el desarrollo de la enfermedad.

We just received IRB approval for the new “Healthy Aging & Resilient Brain Study”👍🏼 We’ll be examining protective factors in multicultural individuals over the age of 80 (a.k.a super agers). Study will be available in English/Spanish/Portuguese 😊@MGHmapp @ytquiroz #ENDALZ

Dr. Marino will be presenting some of our most recent work with antibodies that were developed based on our findings with the Colombian patient with the APOE Christchurch mutation! 👍🏼 @MGHmapp #apoemtg2021 @ApoEdscvr

In a longitudinal PET study, Smith et al. show that tau accumulation rates are higher in females, younger Aβ-positive individuals, and those with higher baseline tau load. https://t.co/29glM7k7BF
