Finger-prick dried blood sampling can accurately measure key Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers, including p-tau217, GFAP, and ...

If you find it hard to focus after a wakeful night, it’s because your brain is busy trying to catch up on crucial ...

The choice of 810 nm is also supported by photobiology: this wavelength aligns well with the absorption spectrum of cytochrome c oxidase (the mitochondrial “light receptor”) and has been widely used ...

Faster motor and cognitive progression of Parkinson disease was found in patients with higher baseline cerebrospinal fluid neurofilament heavy levels. Higher cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neurofilament ...

Exploring the genetic blueprint of cerebrospinal fluid proteins, this study uncovers new markers and therapeutic targets that may unlock advancements in Alzheimer’s diagnosis and care. Study: ...

CIDP causes muscle weakness and numbness, among other symptoms. Diagnosing CIDP involves peripheral nervous system testing, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, and imaging. CIDP is an immune-mediated ...

It may be possible to identify the presence of an aggressive brain tumor in children by studying their cerebrospinal fluid, according to new research led by Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center ...

Researchers have linked disease-related proteins and genes to identify specific cellular pathways responsible for Alzheimer's genesis and progression. The proteins were gathered from cerebrospinal ...

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a type of clear liquid that surrounds, protects, and cushions your brain and spinal cord from possible injuries. The fluid is held in place by the dura mater, a dense ...
