Insomnia, but not lack of sleep, may hasten brain shrinkage: study

A drug commonly used to treat glaucoma has been shown in zebrafish and mice to protect against the build-up in the brain of the protein tau, which causes various forms of dementia and is implicated in Alzheimer’s disease

A nasal spray made from stem cell-derived vesicles offers hope for delaying Alzheimer's disease progression for years after diagnosis by reducing brain inflammation and decreasing the buildup of plaques and proteins thought to be linked to neuron loss

Prenatal maternal sleep disturbances affect the developing neonatal fronto-limbic brain area and later influence infant negative emotionality, which is a risk factor for psychopathology

25-year study reveals key factors in healthy brain aging and cognitive performance: DNA methylation patterns predicts mortality risk, and higher childhood intelligence correlates with healthy brain aging and better cognitive performance later in life

Study of ~368,000 UK individuals found healthy lifestyle choices, measured by a Brain Care Score (BCS), can reduce the risk of stroke, late-life depression (LLD), and dementia in those genetically predisposed to these conditions
