Loss of memory reversed in Alzheimer's mice models
Researchers from the Institute of Neuroscience have been able to reverse memory loss in its initial stages in model mice with Alzheimer's disease through gene therapy.
According to Carlos Saura, head of this research that appears on the cover of The Journal of Neuroscience, “this study opens up new perspectives on therapeutic prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease, given that we have demonstrated that gene therapy which activates the Crtc1 protein is effective in preventing the loss of memory in lab mice".
The Institute of Neuroscience belongs to the UAB University that the Barcelona Synchrotron Park works with.
