Unravelling Boléro: progressive aphasia, transmodal creativity and the right posterior neocortex.
Brain. 2008 Jan;131(Pt 1):39-49. Epub 2007 Dec 5 PubMed: 18057074Art as Therapy—Can Creative Expression Soothe Dementia Symptoms?
RESEARCH NEWS 2014-05-23 Research News With a final stroke of the brush, Laura Baxter puts finishing touches on her painting, a piece of abstract art others deem a masterpiece. Baxter was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease at age 62. Now 77, she cannot remember how to sign her na

COMMENT As APOE4 is basically the genetic risk factor for AD, it is heartening to see these two papers. The paper by Holtzman and collaborators is a characterization that leaves few questions unanswered. That plaque burden decreases with systemic delivery of an A

Sensitization of diabetic and obese mice to insulin by retinoid X receptor agonists.
Nature. 1997 Mar 27;386(6623):407-10. PubMed: 9121558Henrietta Nielsen on Has ApoE’s Time Come as a Therapeutic Target?
COMMENT Both these studies are addressing the ApoE problem by using different strategies to alter ApoE concentrations. Liao and colleagues used a monoclonal mouse anti-ApoE antibody trying to sequester ApoE levels in plaque-bearing APP/PS1 mice at the age of 7 mo
Gary Landreth on Has ApoE’s Time Come as a Therapeutic Target?
COMMENT The report by Michaelson's lab provides further validation of the effects of the RXR agonist bexarotene in murine models related to AD. They have employed a mouse model in which the human ApoE genes are knocked into the murine locus and, unlike previ
Has ApoE’s Time Come as a Therapeutic Target?
RESEARCH NEWS 2014-05-23 Research News Although the ApoE4 allele represents the primary genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease, few researchers have attempted to target it therapeutically. Exactly how the allele promotes AD is only gradually becoming clearer, and

RESEARCH NEWS 2014-05-23 Research News Most studies on Aβ aggregation take place in test tubes. Does the peptide clump up differently inside a nerve cell? Researchers led by Gabriele Kaminski Schierle, University of Cambridge, U.K., have developed a combination of fluorescence-ba
