Alzheimer’s Moment: Researchers Shore Up Antibody Effectiveness Against the Disease

The search for ways to prevent or treat Alzheimer’s disease has been stymied in part by difficulties in reliably delivering therapeutics into the brain to prevent proteins there from depositing fibrous plaques that damage synapses and ultimately wreck one’s cognitive abilities. Researchers have experimented with antibodies, peptides and even nanoparticles to find some way of effectively preventing plaque formation but these efforts have yet to yield an anti-Alzheimer’s drug.
