What if certain signs of the disease were to manifest subtly during sleep, long before the first memory problems appear? This is the line of inquiry being explored by a team of researchers at ULiège.

In Alzheimer's disease, amyloid plaques form in the brain, followed by threadlike structures made of the protein tau.

Researchers have shown that an imaging model can detect microstructural abnormalities in the brain associated with Huntington's disease, potentially offering a new method for monitoring disease progression and evaluating new treatments.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system.

A new mathematical model that reproduces the relapsing-remitting pattern of multiple sclerosis (MS) offers scientists a tool to better understand how the disease progresses.

Adults who do both aerobic and muscle-strengthening exercises are less likely to develop a raft of chronic diseases, researchers have found.

The size of a person's midsection is a better indicator of cardiovascular disease risk than body mass index (BMI) alone, according to a study published in JACC.

Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) have been proposed as a therapeutic approach to shut down the production of faulty proteins in a wide variety of diseases, including cancer. In a study published in the Journal of Cell Biology (JCB), researchers at the Cancer Research UK Scotland

Researchers from the American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Infectious Diseases updated recommendations for the use of influenza vaccines and antiviral medications in the prevention and treatment of influenza in children during the 2026–2027 influenza season.

The brain's immune cells are increasingly recognized as key players in Alzheimer's disease, but exactly how they change as the disease develops has remained unclear. A new study published in Nature Genetics provides the most comprehensive map to date of these cells, identifying a

When a wound does not heal properly, it leaves a scar. Similarly, mutations—which are permanent changes to genetic code—are often the result of damaged DNA that has not been properly repaired. Mutations can impede the function of genes and lead to disease and aging, but they are

A new study led by investigators at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center found that while traditional pathological features used to classify aggressive prostate cancer—such as high-grade disease, cancer extending outside the prostate and cancer involving the semina
